Staffed by qualified pool lifeguards, Latrobe City Council will continue to operate the Moe and Yallourn North Outdoor Pools following a review of the 2020/21 season
Opening outdoor pools
At the 5 July Ordinary Council Meeting, Council voted to open the Moe and Yallourn North Outdoor Pools from the last Saturday in November through to Labour Day in March, annually.

Place to reconnect
