Alex had the 200 free with Banjo in the 200IM, both racing well. Rosalie and Kolya had strong swims in in the 200 breast. Emily from the ACT Hub also in the same event and going through to the finals to finish 6th overall. ... The boys took on the 4 x 200m free relay which was a great experience...despite it being after everyone’s bed time! Well done boys! Day 5 had some great highlights! Kieran finished off his State Age events with the 200 back, Bella was on debut in the 50 free grabbing a PB and nearly cracking the 30sec barrier. Solomona took a 3 sec PB in the 100 back. Meanwhile Harrison hit out at the 400 free and Owen in the 200 free both with sold swims. Milaina had her first swim of the meet in the 100 Fly. Oriane from the ACT Hub also swam the 100 Fly going through to finals and finishing 6th overall! And last but not least...Lillyan and Lucy had the 200 breast with Lucy going through to finals and placing 8th overall! Congrats!

20.01.2022 We know you’ll go nuts over this, but we just had to get our Canberra ASC Dad’s a gift to say thank you for volunteering on Father’s Day. We’re sure it’s ale in a days work for you, but it was the yeast we could do. Happy Fathers Day to all our Canberra ASC Dads, Step-Dads and father figures! #dadpuns #youarewelcome

19.01.2022 I’m just going to leave this here...

19.01.2022 Today is R U OK? day. It’s a good day to remind ourselves to start a conversation for today, tomorrow or any day. But what do you say next? Some people might not find it easy to keep the conversation going when someone says they’re not OK, but it could change a life. R U OK have released an interactive conversation roleplay video to help you learn what to say after R U OK? Visit www.ruok.org.au/how-to-ask to get started and learn how to ask R U OK?, listen, encourage action and check in.

09.01.2022 Vale Merv and Beth Knowles - It is with great sadness that we learn of the passing of Merv Knowles, former member of the Canberra Amateur Swimming Club and Club Champion in 1940 and 1941. Merv was Manuka Pool’s most dedicated swimmer and along with his family has a rich Canberra history. He passed away on Tuesday 14 July, Merv was 98. Merv was married to Beth for 74 years who sadly also passed away on 19 July at age 93. ... Merv’s older brother, Lindsay, was also a member of the Club and had been club champion in 1935-36 season with their father, Sir George Knowles, a former President of Canberra ASC. Manuka Pool first opened in December 1930 and Canberra Amateur Swimming Club was formed immediately on the opening of the pool - we share our 90th Birthday in December. Our thoughts are with the Knowles family and Friends of Manuka Pool community at this time.

08.01.2022 One of the many thing we love about our Canberra ASC community is that our members are active in raising awareness and advocating for social issues. Super star Sarah Smith is no different and is walking 60km to make a difference to the lives of people touched by mental illness and suicide as part of the Black Dog Institute One Foot Forward campaign. Funds raised by Sarah will go towards life-changing research into treatment and prevention of mental illness, as well as vital support services.
