No we are not putting in an ice-skating rink :-). Bowral swimming centre is just having a bit of repair work done while the pools are empty.
Here’s a summary of what we have been up to and will be doing:
- The existing chlorinated rubber paint has been removed from the 50m, 25m and toddler pools.
- Pool walls and floors have been skim coated to fill the concrete surface, ready for epoxy paint.
- The edging (coping) that is around the rim of the pools will be tiled on the three pools to match both Moss Vale and Mittagong Pools.
- Gutters have been rendered and will be painted.
It should look pretty good when completed by September 2017 and best of all there will be no more tiles falling off!

In early June 2016, the Mittagong Pool site experienced flooding as the result of an east coast low rainfall event that occurred in the area.
The site experienced a variety of damage as a result of inundation including pool cleaners, fences, pool blankets, reels, pool ladders, vinyl liners and pool plant. In addition, water pressure from the flooding under the pools resulted in the structural failure of the floor of the Learn to Swim (LTS) pool.
Council will consider a report on repair options for Mittagong Pool on Wednesday 14 December 2016. See page 66 of the Agenda for more information.The decision will be listed in Minutes from the meeting and can be viewed at www.wsc.nsw.gov.au/council-agendas-and-minutes
