Last night teen swim night took place in Portage la Prairie at Island Park's Splash Island. Donnovan Hillman was there, and says it's the last event he's involved with as youth councillor for the city.

Donnovan Hillman "This is kind of my last official event. It's more of a sponsorship type of thing. It's called Teen Swim Night. It's in cooperation with the Portage Regional Recreation Authority where people aged 12 to 18 get in free of charge."

He adds he did it last year and thought to hold the event again but without charge this time.

Ethan StanleyEthan stanley attended and says it's not everyday you get the chance for a free swim at Splash Island, and adds he's staying til it closes.

Diana was also there and says it's a great idea, only she would like to see it happen more often in Portage.
