On Thursday, December the 14th at 15:00, although the event started much earlier than that, I came to help with the Swimdonesia/Swim for Life event. There were four GCs there to help out however my GC is an amalgamate of Bali Sharks and Gili Eco Trust.
There were many swimmers, especially those from the swim team, who decided to swim a certain number of laps to gain sponsorship much like Run for Rights. We had a stall and were selling both Bali Sharks and Gili Eco Trust merchandise, however, no one came to our stall and only one of our mentor for the GC bought something. In spite of that, our treasure hunt was not a huge success, but there were some children who participated, mostly for the hopes of candy.
I believe it went really well as there were many swimmers that were willing to contribute to our cause despite the fact that we did not sell as much as we had hoped to.
