All welcome at Bourke Swimming Club

The Bourke Swimming Club season is off to a great start, with a new president, new equipment and a new combined Wednesday night swimming meeting at 5.30pm for a 6pm start.

The Club is hoping for an increase in the number of youngsters and adults getting into the splash, and President Dwayne Willoughby said everyone, no matter their age or ability, is welcome to join.

A weekend working bee at the pool saw a good turnout of parents and youngsters sprucing up the clubrooms and with drought funding from the Bourke Shire Council, the Club was also able to add new equipment ready for the season ahead.
