Thanks to the Treacy Family of Mooroopna for their wonderful photo of the Raymond West Swimming Pool in all its glory. We hope you like our new cover design for the new My Shepparton Volume 2 book which we hope will be available early December.
This new edition will have 200+ photos (with many rarely seen) and some great photos of our old pool which many people miss dearly. They miss the large expanse of water. The large diving tower and Buddha's exploits of riding off it on his bike. Were you there that day?
They miss being able to enter the pool free of charge as there was no fence and they did so all times of the day and night.
They don't miss some of the things that floated in the water and it wasn't as clear as it is today. Possibly a result of the fruit pickers and visitors who used it to wash themselves down after a hot and sweaty day in the orchard.
All said and done it was a great attraction for visitors and locals alike.
