NEW OWNER OF CLUB GOOGONG

We are pleased to announce that a permanent owner has been found for Club Googong. Canberra-based swim school operators, Aquatots, will take over the club from 1 October 2019.

Since Club Googong opened in 2014, YMCA Canberra has been managing the pool and gym on our behalf. They have done an outstanding job and I would like to thank them for their commitment to our community.

The Googong Sales and Information Centre will continue to operate from Club Googong until March 2020, when we will relocate to Googong’s next new Display Village in Googong Central.

Aquatots are planning to open a new café in the centre.

Aquatots has a very successful track record and offers a wide range of activities – from award-winning programs for babies from six weeks of age, to squad level swimmers, as well as general swimming and water education programs. They share our passion for community, and we are looking forward to passing the facility into their hands.

YMCA will be contacting all existing Club Googong members and users with information to support a smooth transition.

Aquatots will host Drop-In Sessions on the following dates to answer your questions, introduce you to their programs, and get feedback from the community on:

• Monday 19/8/19 from 3.30pm-5.30pm at Club Googong
• Thursday 22/8/19 from 9.30am to 11.30am, and again from 3.30pm-5.30pm, at Club Googong
• Sunday 25/8/19 from 9am-12pm, at Club Googong
• Sunday 1 September (Father’s Day) at our Kitefest event at Rockley Oval, from 11am-2pm.

Further dates will be advised.

For all enquiries please contact Aquatots direct on 02 6162 0507, via email enquiries@aquatots.com.au, or online at aquatots.com.au, or see them at one of their Drop-In Information Sessions.

This is an exciting development for the township, and I hope you will join me in welcoming Aquatots to Googong.

Sincerely

Malcolm Leslie
Googong Project Director
