THE TEAM at Lydney’s Bathurst Pool praised this year’s season, following strong community support.

The popular outdoor swimming pool had its final day of the season on Sunday, September 7 - and while the weather was not great that particular day, the pool, and the town, enjoyed some fantastic temperatures over the summer.

Anna, a Bathurst Pool volunteer, said: “The season has gone very well, as the weather was really good, the gate income increased by over 20 per cent and plans for next season will be discussed at the Annual General Meeting, which normally takes place sometime in February or March.”

The team took to social media and thanked the community for “a fabulous season” and it looks forward to next year.
