The countdown is on to the start of Cardinia’s Outdoor Pool season for 2024/25.
The Garfield, Koo Wee Rup and Pakenham Outdoor Pools all open on Saturday 9 November with Emerald Lake Park Wading Pool close behind, opening on Saturday 23 November.
This Summer will see the return of the Summer Calendar of Fun providing affordable and fun activities and offers across the pools, as well as the return of Aquatic and Recreation Victoria’s VicSwim holiday program.
Based on community consultation, research and historical data, this Summer will see some slight amendments to operations:
- Temperature trigger lowered to 25 degrees
- Temperature taken from central location from all pools (Pakenham via BOM – Ferny Creek station)
