Kaikoura Pool Update
21 February 2018Thankyou to all the amazing people who have donated so far. It has been a very busy year - we have now completed an independent feasibility study for the new pool and are working hard on securing a site.
Now that we have a better idea of what the project will be, we have re-opened this page (see below).
Our community is deeply grateful to anyone able to share this page and promote the project. We will be updating regularly, but please feel free to contact us for more information.
Thanks again,
Kaikoura Sport & Recreation Leadership Team
