The popular Regional All Abilities Swimming Carnival was held on 5 March with all who participated reporting they had a fantastic day.

Disability services from Forbes, Cowra, Temora, Trangie and Bathurst participated in the carnival hosted by Currajong Disability Services Parkes.

This year marked the 11th year of the swimming carnival with 56 participants competing over the day.

In the morning participants put their swimming skills on show competing in a range of events at the Parkes Aquatic Centre.

After lunch the swimming didn't stop with swimmers having fun competing in races across the pool, demonstrating their best way to get across the pool by having fun or by dancing to music.

Currajong Disability Services day program coordinator Doug Pout said the day wouldn't be possible without the 25 support workers who were in attendance at the event.

"Everyone has fun getting to know people they might not usually see from different towns," Doug said.

"For some, it's their favourite day of the year."
