To the Mayor
How disappointed my wife and I were on our trip returning from Orange to Sydney when we stopped in at Blackheath looking forward to a refreshing swim in the pool only to find it closed. This was 11.30am on Monday the 2nd of Feb 2009. Here we are in the middle of summer with a local pool closed during the middle of the day. We looked at each other dumbfounded, a beautiful summers day, a wonderful park and gardens, a great public facility - the Blackheath swimming pool - all locked up?????
Yes, I read your pool sign stating opening times, Mon-Fri 7.30am - 11am & 3.30pm - 6.30pm, while this may be suitable for some locals it certainly doesn't suit travellers to Blackheath who are more likely to arrive late morning and leave early afternoon.
All I can ask is Why?
PS I have fond memories, as a child, of our family driving up the mountains to swim in the pool at Blackheath and picnic in the park.
