Pontefract Pool Users Group Meeting - Keep Swimming at Pontefract

Jeff Allinson has called a meeting of the Pontefract Pool Users Group for this coming Wednesday the 5th at 5pm in the community room in Pontefract Library to discuss the Leisure report on the five towns pools that WMDC commissioned.

Of the three pools that are being targeted in the 5 towns, Pontefract is in best condition, busiest and being adjacent to the Town Centre and the Bus Station and with ample parking facilities its loss will be felt. Closing it as part of a plan to replace the three with a single new facility at Glasshoughton, on the Prince of Wales site or on Pontefract Park seems just barmy.

Whatever happens I want to see the best facility in Pontefract for our residents. We have up to 4000 new homes to be built in our part of the world and I am sure that the new residents would join with existing ones in the message Keep Swimming at Pontefract!

See you there?
