Emma Morton shines in Wanaka's Summer Swim Event

Mrs G Beardmore —

'The Ruby - Return of the Jetty' is a 1.2km swim race forming part of the Ruby Swim Competition in the pure water of Lake Wanaka. Aptly advertised as the 'greatest little swim race in the world', the event takes place in late January and draws interest from keen swimmers far and wide.

Emma Morton swam in 'The Ruby - The Return of the Jetty', a 1.2 km swim event over the holidays in Wanaka, and had a fantastic race. Emma finished in first place in the U15 girls category and 2nd overall with a time of 19.07 minutes.

We are super proud of Emma, her dedication to swimming, and her performance this summer in the Ruby. Congratulations, Emma! Keep up the great work.
