Friends of the Pool

Fitzroy pool was closed for a private booking this morning. Other closures are planned across February-March. Yarra has walked away from its long standing agreement with the community that apart from the Mega-Swim all bookings would max at 6 lanes with 4+ left for public access.

The Fitzroy pool opens Monday. Book a spot in the lap lanes - if you live outside a hotspot - at leisure.yarracity.vic.gov.au… Can't wait.

Good news: the Fitzroy Pool will reopen. Not-so-good news is not until 6 July; a month after Spring St allowed pools to open, 2 weeks after Collingwood & a week after Richmond. Yep, last in line again. What's with Yarra Leisure management? Why not open them all on the same day.

It will be great to see the pool open again asap. My togs are complaining about the lack of use.
