AGM - 8pm Wednesday 27 April
,
,
The AGM of Friends of Northleach Swimming Pool will take place at 8pm, Wednesday 27 April, in the Midwinter Room at the Westwoods Centre. The Town Council has very kindly let us have use of the room for free.
By the time we meet, the pool equipment should have been inspected and tested, so we should know the lay of the land this year. We’ve fixed one burst pipe caused by the harsh winter. Hopefully, the boiler will pass its annual service. Fingers crossed!
This is the meeting where the three Officers get elected for the next 12 months. Claire and I are happy to continue volunteering for the pool, but we need at least one other person to join the Committee, either as Chair, or Secretary, depending on where their skills lie. Don’t worry, we won’t drop newcomers in at the deep end! If you know anyone who would be interested, please invite them along. They don’t need to be a parent at the school; we welcome anyone from the local area who is willing to help us keep things going.
The agenda for the meeting is as follows:
1. Welcome to new faces
2. Heads of Agreement
3. Pool equipment update
4. Fundraising for 2011
5. Election of Officers
6. AOB
If there’s anything else you would like to add to the agenda, just let me know.
Thanks and see you there!
UPDATE: Did anyone spot the deliberate mistake? Election of officers has been added to the agenda.

Pool open after school
,
,
I am pleased to advise you that the swimming pool will be open after school for the remainder of the term starting today, Wednesday 16 June.
Pool opening will always be subject to weather conditions, pool safety standards and lifeguard availability. A decision on whether it is possible to open will be made at 3 pm every day, so please check the A-board in the playground for more information.
The lifeguards also need another adult with them so if anyone can help at any of the after school sessions, please see Terri Morley-Blackwell or add your name to the rota on the notice board by the hall.
The sessions will run from 3.30 – 4.30 and the cost will be £1.50 (please bring change if possible!). We do have a limit on pool numbers of 25 and places will be given on a first come basis. This will mean that on certain days we will be unable to accommodate all those children who want to come. Please understand that the lifeguard is not able to be flexible on this rule.
For safety reasons, under 8’s must be accompanied by an adult, and non-swimmers who are not comfortably within their depth in all parts of the pool should wear armbands or a floatation device.
Don’t forget that the pool is available for party hire outside of the sessions above. Terri and Mrs Spice have the details. During private hire the age restrictions are lifted and it is a great venue for a children’s party or a family swim.

Northleach has an open air swimming pool, which is ideal for helping young children gain confidence in the water. Located next to Northleach Primary School, the pool is open from the end of May. Friends of Northleach Swimming Pool manages the pool and raises the money needed to keep it going.
