Ian ‘Thorpedo” Kaupke will be back in 2020 at the Currajong Disability Services Annual All Abilities Swimming Carnival which will be held at Parkes Aquatic Centre.
In just six short weeks, the Currajong Disability Services Annual All Abilities Swimming Carnival will be held at Parkes Aquatic Centre. On Wednesday, 4 March participants from Orange, Temora, Trangie, Dubbo, Cowra, Forbes and Bathurst will converge in Parkes for the flagship event.
In 2019, 120 entrants competed, and interest in this year’s event is promising an even bigger carnival. Organiser Indigo Kriedemann said that the day was a real highlight on the regional disability calendar and many were already looking forward to it.
“It’s a great event that brings together people far and wide within the disability community,” Indigo said.
In previous years Currajong has dominated the event however, last year Live Better from Orange won the chocolates despite sterling efforts in the pool by Ian Kaupkee and Tim McDonald.
“It really is a special day because we all don’t get together that often,” Indigo said. “It’s also a real social outing and I know many of us get a buzz out of it!”
