For the first time, all of the region’s media outlets and radio stations have put up a team in the ‘Celebrity Audition’ at the Big Splash on Wednesday, March 7.

The fifth fundraiser for headspace Albury-Wodonga and Survivors of Suicide and Friends will feature a nine-race program with two new challenges.
Organiser Stephen Mamouney said there would be a ‘blindfold relay’ where teams would help direct each other down the lanes of the Albury Swim Centre.
“The corporate and community challenge is another new event which will be a pyramid relay; the first team member swims to the end of the pool and the second person jumps in and they both swim back,” he said.
“With the blindfold relay, I think it will be more entertaining for the people watching.”
