Anne is an Unsung Hero!

We had the BBC filming and interviewing at Ringwood on Tuesday because Anne is through to the final three in the southern region heat of BBC Sports Unsung Hero 2011. Many thanks to Tarah for nominating her and doing all the paperwork (see it here).

Newsletter, November 2011

This is our first newsletter for some time and we would very much like to make it a regular feature to let you know what is going on at Ringwood Seals Swimming Club. However, I am sure you will appreciate that this requires time to pull together so any volunteers to help out will be very welcome!! Please contact any committee member if you are interested in helping with communications for the club.

We will be putting a list of committee members’ names and pictures on the Board for your information and we do of course have this website where you can find out all the up-to-date information on the club.
