The occasion was a swimming gala hosted by Castlebar Swimming Club as an affiliated club of the Connaught Branch of the IASA. The year was probably 69 or 70. Participating swimmers were from clubs in Galway, Sligo. Loughrea, Castlerea, Longford and Carrickonshannon. Back then only three clubs could host galas in pools- Castlerea, Longford and Sligo. Skinty won Connaught Championship Gold medals for the 100m freestyle, and butterfly in Longford around that time.
