They are now available once again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He invited the public to make use of the facility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited about today\u2019s official launch and the opening of the swimming pool, not only to the residents of Retreat but the surrounding residents as well as the clubs and lifesavers who use it. The re-opening is going to add much joy to the life of our community, especially with the summer months\u2019 approach.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Images\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_9f4b448a\">\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/12326\/8398811d224a43a1b83738bc7cc65573.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/peoplespost\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/721e3069c72b4c9fbbd8da77bd8e9b17.jpeg\" title=\"The Retreat Indoor Swimming pool will be open seven days a week, including public holidays between 10:00 and 17:00.

So, today we see a culmination of all the work that was done in the last seven to eight years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mayco member for community services and health Patricia van der Ross, who officially re-opened the pools on Friday, said some basic maintenance work was needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBefore there were no maintenance plans, \u201cshe said, \u201cand it took us a few years to put the process maintenance in place,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Referring to the construction of a new baby pool, Van der Ross said it was a milestone to get a brand-new baby pool up and running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe baby pool was out of order, so we had construction of a new pool and got that up and running,\u201d she shared. \u201cIt is brand new, the first time over a decade that there will be full access to the facility and I think that in itself is exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She encouraged residents to be mindful to always accompany minors to the pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur lifeguards are here, the pool is officially open from today,\u201d she commented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_074d758c\">\n<div class=\"text\">Caregivers and parents must please accompany their children to the pools and they must follow the advice of the lifeguards on duty.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Ward 110 councillor Shanen Rossouw reminded residents to take ownership of the facility by not allowing any vandalism to take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are looking forward to the community enjoying the pools, but they must look after this facility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She pointed out that the City spent a lot on maintaining and upgrading the facility. \u201cIf they see people vandalising, they need to inform the councillor or the officials at the swimming pools,\u201d said Rossouw. \u201cWe spent a lot of money to fix the pool and we are urging the community to take ownership because this is for their enjoyment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The facility will be open seven days a week, including public holidays between 10:00 and
