Lahee Park Pool is nearly ready to be opened
I’m extremely pleased that the pool project is nearing completion and although we did not meet the end of August deadline due to all of the wind during the month, the main pool has been filled and is just about ready to go! The diving pool and the paddling pool should both be marbelited but the end of this coming weekend afterwhich all remains is filling them with water and cleaning up the surrounds in preparation for the reopening. Keep an eye out for an invitation to an opening relaunch event at the pool one of these splendid spring evenings.
I’m extremely pleased this project is nearing completion both because it is another social green space which has been rehabilitated for public use but also because it does show that our local government is capable of performing desperately needed maintenance of existing infrastructure. The renovated Lahee Park Swimming pool is the cherry on top of the ongoing cleaning and rejuvination of the Lahee Park preceinct, which now has 4 fulltime staff keeping it tidy and tending to the gardens. One step and a time, we will get it whipped back into shape.

Well done on fixing up the pool. The park is a great asset for Pinetown residents and must not be allowed to deteriate.
