Swimming with Pride for MS Please join our team & swim with us on March 16/17 in Shepparton. banner_header.jpg "The 24 Hour Mega Swim is a fun team event comprising of no more than 15 swimmers per team. Each team must have one swimmer in the water for the entire 24 hours. It is up to the team how they swim it. Some teams have been known to have their swimmers swim in blocks of 15 minutes right up to 4 hours. There is no set formula." "The 24 Hour Mega Swim is a community event encouraging people of all genres to take part in an event in such a positive manner as part of fundraising for such a worthy cause. Participants are from a diverse range of ethnic and religious backgrounds, age, physical and mental abilities, community groups, sporting clubs, businesses and social communities - all are invited and encouraged to be a part of the popular 24 Hour Mega Swim activity." Funds raised from the 24 Hour Mega Swim supports the Go For Gold Foundation which provides scholarships to people living with Multiple Sclerosis to aspire and achieve to the best of their ability and also contributes to Financial Assistance Programs to provide direct and immediate support for people living with MS.
