Fun swim organizers report the event went off without a hitch. Other competitors in the swim included Sharon Daly, Joan Parnell, Mike McCroden, Leslie Bruse, Molly Boyd, Shawn Hughes and Daryl Stone.

That job involved management studies for the national police force, and also entailed development of computer programs. Speevak is a 14-year veteran RCMP and has had previous postings in Nanaimo, Golden, Kamloops and Ottawa.
