Swimming is main reason I can walk

Dear Editor,

When I recently heard rumours about the existing swimming closing in 2014, I was extremely disappointed. In May of 2012 I moved to Barrhead because of the indoor pool. I have a very serious form of arthritis so I swim laps three days a week. Swimming is the main reason I can still walk.

The pool is always busy with two and sometimes three people to a lane. I swim the 11:30 to 1 p.m. time and there is usually something before and after that time. The pool is very important for young to old, if it needs some T.L.C. until there’s a new pool it’s for a good cause.
