In order to keep registration fees as low as possible, continue paying for members' meet fees, and to qualify for government grants, the club must fundraise. All swimmers are required to pay a fundraising deposit for each season. The Club organizes fundraising events throughout the year, such as chocolate sales, a Swim-a-thon, a silent auction, music bingo nights and more.
