The rural community of Mole Creek has plunged into summer with the official reopening of the Mole Creek Swimming Pool held to mark the occasion after two years of closure.
Due to a critical shortage of trained lifeguards, the pool has been unable to operate, depriving this community of a valued recreational resource.
Royal Life Saving Tasmania was successful in obtaining funding through TasNetworks’ Community Grants Program to provide vital training for 14 lifeguards who will volunteer their time at the pool this summer.
Karina Siggins, Manager of Royal Life Saving Tasmania, expressed her appreciation for the TasNetworks’ Community Grants Program, which has enabled the organisation to collaborate with TasNetworks and the Mole Creek Progress Association.
