Pools open in summer sunshine

With summer days finally upon us and the mercury reaching above 25 degrees Celsius, local pools will be open more often.
Outdoor pools in Neerim South, Trafalgar, Thorpdale, Drouin, the Warragul Leisure Centre and the Rawson indoor pool will be open with some exceptions until the end of March.
On days where the forecast is a maximum of 25 degrees or above, the Neerim South, Trafalgar, Thorpdale and Drouin outdoor pools will open, except for early morning lap swimming that is not weather dependent.
The Warragul Leisure Centre outdoor pool will be open until the end of March regardless of forecast temperature and the indoor aquatics centre remains open all year.
The Rawson indoor pool will be open everyday until the end of March unless a Code Red fire danger day is declared. Neerim South and Thorpdale outdoor pools will also close on Code Red days.
All pools can be closed at anytime due to thunderstorms or extreme weather conditions.
Daily fees range from $3.80 for children and concession card holders, to $6.10 for an adult and $16.80 for a family. Monthly and season passes also are available.
