What’s Happening at WIRAC over Spring & Summer 2019
So Winter draws to a close and Spring is upon us. With the warmer months comes the busy season for the Centre and we do appreciate our members and users patience as we conclude not just our massive renovation project (the Heat Pump Project) but also the reduced hours over the cooler months.
We will be moving back to longer hours of operation during September and October and these hours are listed alongside this text on the web page. We have some new programs and services starting and these are listed below. Please check in with reception at the Centre for further details about these listed activities

Rockwall/Disco on Fri 8 Nov. Over the weekend, pool fee’s will be half price and we will conduct the Macca’s Mini Meet, and introduce Masters swimming as well as the new Aqua Duck program. The pool inflatable will be up on Saturday and Sunday at specified times.
