Port Lincoln Leisure Centre set to celebrate 40th anniversary

November 3, 2024

The Port Lincoln Leisure Centre is set to celebrate its 40th anniversary with the City of Port Lincoln Council and YMCA inviting the community to a celebration of the four decade milestone at the facility on Saturday 9th November.

Advising that the Centre had played an important role in the community’s way of life over the past 40 years, Port Lincoln Mayor, Diana Mislov advised “it’s where babies and young children learn important water safety skills, and people of all ages use the pool facilities for rehabilitation, fitness and fun.

“The basketball, squash and gym facilities not only support health and wellbeing but also foster social connections, creating a welcoming space for skill development, friendship and sense of community.

“The centre provides something for everyone. Join us in celebrating this remarkable milestone, acknowledging the many key contributors like Mr Sime Sarin and Mr Bill Richter, and the positive impact the Leisure Centre continues to have on our community.”
