An ideal time to swim
Gosford Council's acting pool manager Mr Bruce Forbes is not waiting for the redevelopment of the Woy Woy pool.
He has encouraged residents to take advantage of the pool during winter.
"Despite what many people think, this is an ideal time to utilise the pool," said Mr Forbes.
"The water is warm, and swimming is the perfect exercise for all shapes and sizes.
"You can train at your own pace or join a squad.
"Workers can come to the pool before or after work, or during their lunch break.
"People tend to do less physical activity during the cooler months but swimming really can be enjoyable and its the only sport which exercises every muscle in your body."
