POOLS SET TO OPEN – SUMMER IS COMING!
Media Release
The Kerang and Cohuna Swimming Pools are opening their gates for the season on Saturday 4 November.
Both pools, managed by Gannawarra Shire Council, will open between 3pm and 7pm for the month of November before extending the hours to 10am – 8pm for the summer months of December, January and February, with the flexibility to open later on extreme hot weather days.
This season there will again be a Weather Temperature Policy in place. When the temperature on the Bureau of Meteorology website is forecast to be 21 degrees Celsius or below then the outside pools will not be open.

The inflatable pool toys will operate on selected days during schools holidays, dependent on weather conditions and patron numbers.

Pool entry fees have not changed since last season, with general adult admission remaining at $4.50 and a child $3.50. Children under 3 are free as is use of the waterslides and the inflatable pool toy.
Season tickets are available to purchase at the Kerang and Cohuna Customer service centres now, or can be purchased from the pool once the season starts.
