WHEN the business opened in 1972, those involved with Paul Sadler Swimland never imagined the franchise would celebrate its 10 millionth swim.
But this year it is doing exactly that, an unprecedented milestone for the 14-site franchise which includes its Narre Warren school in Seebeck Drive.
To recognise the milestone, Paul Sadler Swimland will be organising a major prize draw that will see one lucky family walk away with $10,000.
In addition, every swim school will also surprise one lucky family with a year of free swimming lessons that can be enjoyed by each child in the family.
Fourteen families will take part in the major prize draw, with one member from each family given the chance to collect a key that unlocks the treasure chest to the cash prize.
Company founder Paul Sadler said he never imagined his swim school would grow into the successful national franchise it has become, which now sees almost 30,000 swimmers participate in lessons each week.
“Although the years seem to have flown by quickly, I can pin-point every hurdle and every achievement we’ve had to date,” he said.
“I’m so proud of my team and how far we’ve come since the opening of the first Paul Sadler Swim School in 1972 and I’m excited to celebrate this milestone with them and every Swimland family.
“Paul Sadler Swimland is one of Australia’s most successful and fastest growing swim schools and we are passionate about teaching Australian children the vital life skill of swimming.”
