Testimonial: “Create a Swim for Hospice Huntsville is Great.

For me, It was a combination of one of my favourite sports and supporting an amazing cause right here in our home town.

I did my swim at Arrowhead Provincial Park on a day and time when the water was nice and calm and the Park was not very busy…it’s great to be able to dictate when and where your event will take place.

After I get into a comfortable rhythm, my swim becomes very reflective ... a time for me to look back into the past and remember my friends and family members whose earthly journey has ended. If you enjoy being in or on the water, I urge you to consider taking part in “Create a Swim”. The caring and wonderful staff at Hospice Huntsville are there to assist you in planning your event.

“Our world needs more people who are willing to be a Light…bringing hope and positivity to Others”… Let your Light shine!!” ~ Warmly, Jane 🏊 2023
