The Orillia Channel Cats Swim Club recently hosted the first of three Muskats Splash Invitational Swim Meet.     Orillia partners with Muskoka to host three development meets primarily for swimmers who are new to competing.

“These meets are quick, and have fewer participants which is a perfect environment for those who are new to the sport.”   Says Head Coach Meredith Thompson-Edwards.    “We will also sometimes offer these meets as an opportunity for more experienced swimmers to try different events as well as obtain Regional qualifying time.”  She adds.

Swimmers from the Jr Novice, Sr Novice, Bronze and Silver swimmers participated as well as swimmers from Muskoka.       “We are pleased with all of our swimmers’ results.     They all did a great job.”  Says Novice Coach Ken Elphick.
