Dave, our amazing coaching team, swimmers, and parents are putting their best foot forward at this year’s Santa Dash to raise vital funds for our brilliant club!
As a non-profit community club, every penny we raise goes straight back into supporting our swimmers — whether its the running of the club, equipment or giving swimmers the opportunity to learn from professional swimmers !
We’d love your support! 🙌
Please donate if you can and help us continue to make ORCA a place where every swimmer can thrive.
🖤Together, we are ORCA — one team, one family
