more vandalism...
Sadly, vandals damaged two white shade umbrellas at Pool last night. This is second break-in this season. One umbrella is damaged beyond repair & BMCC will replace. The other is being repaired. It's very dispiriting.

don't forget your PASS-OUT!
On any one day, once you've paid entry to Blackheath Pool, you may come and go as often as you please, using a Blackheath Pool Pass-Out.
Allows you to swim, have a picnic lunch & swim again later etc. A great idea for Australia Day!
And don't forget pop-up shade & sunscreen is free too!
Happy Australia Day from FoBP&MP.

more SHADE
...a perennial concern.
Extra shade-sails have been in use occasionally. They are anchored between the Toddlers Pool blue-pyramid sail AND perimetre fence. BMCC proposed they would be in place EVERY day to afford extra shade. FoBP&MP notes this has NOT occured.
They were in place over the last weekend, but on Saturday afternoon had ?collapsed? against the fence.
