About Us

Club History: 
The Campbell River Killer Whales Swim Club (CRKW) is a non-profit organization headed by a professional coach staff and run by a volunteer parent group.  It is supported through membership fees and fundraising.
 
The CRKW swim club has been in operation since 1979 and was incorporated in 1986.  CRKW is an age group swim club and operates from September to June of each year.
 
Since 1974, many swimmers have had the opportunity to improve their swimming skills as well as participate in regional, provincial and national competitions.
 
CRKW has produced many successful national level swimmers, the most recent two being John Stamhuis and Alec Page.  John and Alec have been very positive role models for the other swimmers in the club as well as great ambassador’s for CRKW.  Alec Page made the Canadian Games team this year and we look forward to watching his successes in the years to come.
