Dunfermline Press Article
The Dunfermline Press have run the story this week of HMS Caley and
their decision to withdraw access to the local clubs who use their
facilities. Two local MSP's have given us their support to try and
reverse the naval base's decision which stops our access from Saturday
10th July 2010. There are already a few interesting comments from
people on the Dunfermline Press website. If you have any strong views

place sometime next week. Summer shutdown and start back dates may
change with the new timetable and more details of this will be on our

have a big impact on not only Carnegie but the other clubs who also
used the facility but we are hopeful a decent timetable can be arranged
for our swimmers. We will inform you as soon as possible on any outcome.

Latest information we have is that
the Caley will be closed all this week, including this weekend, until
the damage to the roof has been inspected. The Club are trying to
source alternative training pooltime for all squads affected and we
will inform you as soon as we can of any developments. Please keep
checking the Members Forum for information.

East District Success
It was a very successful 3rd weekend
at the East Districts with a host of medals won, records broken and
personal best times smashed. Carnegie ended up with a superb 54 points
to Warrenders 66 over the weekend to keep us in the hunt for the
Solripe trophy going into the final weekend in March which should be
very exiting. Amongst the many top performances were a Scottish Age
Group record for Mark Szaranek in the boys 14/15yrs 200m IM and an East
District record for Rachael O'Donnell in the girls 12/13yrs 200m IM.
Well done to all the Carnegie swimmers who competed over the weekend. A
full report will appear soon. |
