The spring carnival swim meet at Dannevirke's AMP Wai Splash on Sunday was a huge success, with a large number of entries and local swimmers setting personal best times.
"We were really pleased with the turnout, with swimmers representing 10 teams from Manawatu, Wellington, Horowhenua and Wairarapa taking part," club official Michelle Mitchell said.
"For some of our Dannevirke club members it was their first time competing and everyone did very well."
Dannevirke's Chelsea Parlato took out a cash prize in the 16 and over section and other local swimmers had second and third placings in their age groups.
This year former Olympian Jon Winter had his Raumati Raptors and their associated Hawke's Bay swimmers at the meet.
