Killarney

<h3>The team of instructors and swimmers of Dieter&rsquo;s Swim Academy are getting their swim gear on for two very deserving organisations, the Irish Cancer Society and Crumlin Children&rsquo;s Hospital.</h3>
The challenge is to swim the length of the three lakes of Killarney &#8211; 15 kilometres in total during May. It can be undertaken individually or in teams of three and all entrants will be put into a draw for free three month family membership at the leisure centre.
 Now they won&rsquo;t be braving the cold temperatures of our lovely lakes instead they will be swimming in the comfort of the Aquila Club Leisure Centre (600 lengths) in the famous Gleneagle Hotel. Entrants will receive a log book where they can track their lengths after each time they swim.
 Dieter&rsquo;s Swim Academy has been based at the Aquila Club since 1999 and has swimmers ageing from as young as four all the way to 16. The swim academy specialises in providing high quality swim lessons, both individual and group lessons, as well as a swim club.
 The two charities are very close to the hearts of the swim academy staff and swimmers with Dieter himself losing his father to cancer in the past few years.
 &ldquo;After a long hard two years with COVID all the swimmers were delighted to get back to their lessons this year,&#8221; Dieter Gogsch, Swim Coordinator, said.
 &#8220;They all wanted to do something at the end of this swim season to mark our comeback and what better way to do it then with a charity swim challenge. We hope to get as much support and donations for our two chosen charities.&rdquo;
 All the info on taking part and donating can be found on the Aquila Facebook and Instagram pages or by contacting the Aquila Club directly by phone 064 6636178 or on iDonate: DietersSwimChallenge2022.
