Cabonne Council is proud to announce the completion of significant restoration works at the Eugowra War Memorial Swimming Pool, delivering a modern, resilient, and accessible facility for the local community.
The project was funded through the Community Assets Program, a joint initiative of the Australian and NSW Governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA), now administered by the NSW Reconstruction Authority. This program forms part of a broader $24 million investment to rebuild flood-impacted infrastructure across Central West NSW. Cabonne Council received over $8 million to support multiple recovery projects, including the Eugowra pool.
Key Upgrades
Over the past eight months, extensive works have transformed the pool into a safer and more functional community asset:
- Roof Replacement: New insulated roof panel system with gutters and downpipes.
- Amenities Upgrade: Full refurbishment of changerooms with new plumbing, electrical systems, epoxy flooring, toilets, showers, benches, partitions, and a new accessible bathroom.
- Plant Room Shed Replacement
- Pool Resurfacing: Main and toddler pools resurfaced with fiberglass coatings, new coping tiles, reformed steps, and lane markings.
- Landscaping & Comfort: New turf, gardens, irrigation, concrete paths, and shade structures.
Mayor Kevin Beatty said:
"The Eugowra pool is an important community asset, and these upgrades ensure it is safer, more accessible, and equipped to provide a great experience for residents and visitors well into the future."
The completion of this project reflects Cabonne Council's commitment to community resilience and improved recreational facilities for Eugowra.
