“We enjoyed a spectacular Interior Savings Across The Lake Swim this year, and have even more growth planned for 2016. We expect to register 1,500 swimmers in Canada’s largest and longest running open water swim event.
We will be adding more pageantry at the start line on land owned by our local Westbank First Nations where an estimated $10,000 will be also spent by Westbank First Nations to enhance the starting area.”
