To celebrate the re-opening of the popular Lismore Memorial Baths, the community is invited to a free Community Day on Saturday, 20 January between 10am and 3pm.

Lismore City Mayor Steve Krieg said everyone is welcome to come along, have a swim and a splash, and enjoy the repaired facility.

“It’s been a long time between swims after the Baths were significantly damaged during the 2022 natural disaster,” he said.

“Council was able to open the pool early in time for Christmas, but with limited capacity. Thankfully we are now back to normal and are inviting the community to come along and enjoy the upgraded facilities.

“It promises to be a great day with lots of fun activities for the whole family to enjoy.”

Families will be able to enjoy music by The Who’s Who DJ Brendan Deegan between 11am and 2pm, have fun as they attempt to complete the two 40-metre inflatable obstacle courses (weather permitting), make use of the kiosk facility and access to all the pools: 50 metre, 25 metre and toddler splash pool.

To ensure the safety of those attending the Community Day, the number of attendees will be capped at 500 at any one time.
