Across the Lake Swim Elk Lake

The Saanich Peninsula Piranhas Swim Club are proud to host our second annual Splash for Cash fundraiser.

Our fundraising goal for this year is $15000. We hope to be able to use fundraised money to help offset meet fees for our swimmers, to make it more affordable for all to compete. We are a volunteer organized youth sports club, and continue to work to make swimming more affordable for our young athletes and families through a variety of fundraising opportunities.

Our Splash for Cash will be a club wide event with swimmers from all our groups (ages 6-18). They will be challenging themselves to swim as many laps as possible in 1 hour for our senior swimmers and 30 minutes for our junior swimmers.

We want to thank our community in advance for all of their support!

Triathlon can be an intimidating sport to get into. This event is a perfect place to start. Providing people a welcoming, supportive and fun triathlon experience. Who knows, you might love it and be ready to sign up for amazing local races after!

It starts with a 500m pool swim, followed by a 20km bike ride, and ending with a 4km run.

The swim is located at the Commonwealth Pool with transition in the parking lot.

You then head out onto the bike course which will be a 2 loop out and back along Elk Lake Drive (*map will be provided) and coming back into transition for the run.

Come out of transition onto the run, where you run part of the bike course and through winding neighbourhoods with slight elevations around the Commonwealth Pool area.
