Help Shape the Future of Strathbogie Shire’s Swimming Pools

10 Oct 2025

Strathbogie Shire Council is inviting community members to help shape the future of our four outdoor swimming pools in Euroa, Violet Town, Nagambie, and Avenel.

These much-loved facilities are more than just places to swim—they support recreation, fitness, social connection, and community events. However, maintaining and upgrading them requires careful planning and significant investment.

During the 2024/25 season, our pools welcomed 18,450 visitors.

Mayor Claire Ewart-Kennedy said

“Our pools are valued social spaces where people connect, families spend quality time, and the community embraces active living. As we plan for the future, it’s important we hear directly from the community to ensure these spaces continue to reflect the needs and aspirations of those who use them.”

We want to hear from you.
Whether you’re a regular swimmer, attend community events, or simply appreciate the role these spaces play in our towns, your feedback will help guide decisions on:

  • Pool programs and services
  • Facility upgrades and accessibility
  • User fees
  • Operating hours and seasonal use
  • Long-term planning

Tell us what matters most.
Why do you use the pool? What do you value most? What do you envision for the future?
Your input will help shape the future of aquatic facilities across Strathbogie Shire.

Have Your Say:

  • Online: www.share.strathbogie.vic.gov.au
  • In person: Visit the Euroa or Nagambie Customer Service Centres

The survey is now open and will close on 7 November 2025.

Stakeholder Round Table Discussion
In addition to the survey, Council invites interested community members and key stakeholders to attend a round table discussion on Thursday 13 November 2025 at 4pm, at the Euroa Community Conference Centre, 1B Bury Street.

This session offers a welcoming space to share your perspectives, ask questions, and contribute meaningfully to the future planning of Strathbogie Shire’s aquatic facilities.

RSVP’s are encouraged and can be made at www.share.strathbogie.vic.gov.au or by calling 1800 065 993.
