Hanlon Grandkids Honor Garth’s Legacy

August 8, 2024

Way to go Hanna!

On July 30, 2024 a total of 3962 lengths were completed in memory of Garth Hanlon, an avid swimming and active member of the community.

Garth’s passion for swimming lives on through his six grandchildren, all of whom have been members of the Hanna Seals Swim Club, even one bringing home a provincial gold medal. Three of his grandchildren have also followed in his footsteps, becoming lifeguards at the Hanna pool. In 2024, Garth’s grandchildren collectively swam 832 lengths in his memory on July 30. Garth would have been immensely proud of each of them.

The Hanlon family extends a sincere thank you to the community for honoring Garth’s memory by participating in the memorial swim challenge each year!
