Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Marlin Natacion and Prepa Vallarta are excited to announce their second of three planned swimming competitions, the "2nd Serial Marlins Prepa Vallarta," which will take place on February 23 and 24, 2019, at Preparatoria Regional de Puerto Vallarta, Hidalgo 500, (21 de marzo) in La Floresta.

The main purpose of these events is to encourage Puerto Vallarta children, teenagers, and people of all ages to enjoy swimming and its benefits. Swimming encourages a more active lifestyle; teaches discipline, responsibility and courage; and provides an opportunity to form new friendships.

We anticipate having 350 participants of all ages in this swimming competition. As an encouragement, we desire to give each participant a medal and a T-shirt. In addition, there will be 50 trophies awarded. The cost of these items is as follows:

350 Medals: $9,450 pesos (1 Medal = 27 pesos)
350 T-shirts: $31,500 pesos (1 T-shirt = 90 pesos)
50 Trophies: $5,000 pesos (1 Trophy = 100 pesos)

We are inviting you to collaborate with us on this Competition by donating towards the purchase of these items so that all participants receive recognition.
