The Cliff Lumsdon Award of Solo Swims of Ontario was instituted in 1993 in memory of Cliff
Lumsdon who was one of Canada's most outstanding marathon swimmers and contributed so much
to the success of the swims of others. The award ceremony is managed by Swim Ontario and
submissions need to meet their deadlines.
The funds for the plaque were donated in 1992 by Jack Ramsden - a founder of SSO and a Swim Master, Jack was a friend of Cliff and was closely involved with many of Cliff's swims.
This annual award is made in recognition of an outstanding achievement in association with Solo Swims of Ontario Inc.
