THE Lithgow Swim-ming Centre will open for the 1011-12 season in just three weeks time.
But things just won’t be the same.
For the first time since the centre opened in 1962 there will be only the 50 metre main pool available to cater for patrons.
Preliminary work is scheduled to begin next week on the $2 million construction of stage one of the new aquatic centre which will mean the controversial removal of the learner and children’s pool and the toddler pool.
A spokesman for Council said yesterday the construction work will not affect the use of the main pool.
But the other facilities have already been consigned to history.
