East District Success
We managed to push Warrender all the way at the final weekend but they came out deserved winners and well done to them. Carnegie swimmers performed superbly across all the age groups to ensure we finished in a close second position. Well done to all who competed for the Club but special mention to top perfomers Craig Bowman, Rachael O'Donnell & Mark Szaranek for winning the Top Boy / Top Girl awards in their own age groups.
There were East District and Scottish National Age group records galore broken at the weekend and most from our swimmers. Chelsea Lawson was also superb as were the boys 14/15 years relay teams which contained Mark Szaranek, Keiran Watson, Lewis Kirby and Myles and Blair Hershaw.

Craig Rodgie Honoured At Scottish Swimming Awards
At last weekends Scottish Swimming Awards evening at Carnoustie, Carnegie Performance
swimmer, Craig Rodgie, was awarded with the honour of Scottish Male Disability Swimmer Of The Year.

in Iceland earlier this year and his consistent performances leading up to that competition. Well done Craig, everyone at the Club
are proud of your achievements.

Sad News
It is with regret that we inform you of the sad loss of one of Carnegie Swimming Clubs
most popular and successful former Head Coaches, Jim Gray, who passed away on Wednesday 13th January 2010.
Jim was my Coach when i started off swimming and was a huge influence on many good swimmers throughout the 70's & 80's
including our current Club President Gary Watson who swam under Jim when he represented Scotland at the Commonwealth
Games in Edinburgh in 1986. Jim's funeral service will be held at Dunfermline Crematorium on Monday 25th Jan 2010 at 14:45 hrs.
Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
