17.01.2022 Come on down to Movie Night With a Difference which is happening now at the Recreation Reserve and say hi to the very talented Luke and Kim who are offering Face Painting, which is included in your entry fee of $5. Just show them your wristband.

16.01.2022 Buy a tile raises $30,000! Wow!! Thank you so much for being part of this incredibly popular fundraiser. We are completely overwhelmed with the response. Thanks also to Mirboo North & District Community Foundation who will match this $ for $. Round 1 is now closed. If you missed out, Round 2 applications will open over summer when our stunning new pool is launched.

15.01.2022 RACV Solar contributes $25,000 in-kind donation to pool redevelopment. A new solar powered heat pump will be installed on the roof of the new building thanks to this generous donation from RACV Solar, previously Gippsland Solar. This is a wonderful outcome, providing benefits for the community for many years to come. These heat pumps are much more efficient than traditional systems and will keep the pool at the optimum temperature for longer periods. This means the pool will... be able to open for 6-8 weeks longer every year, opening earlier and closing later. The heat pumps will be powered by a 70kW (200 panel) solar power system installed on the roof of the new building. We are thrilled to support this upgrade to the new Mirboo North pool said Andy McCarthy the CEO of RACV Solar. Through a significant contribution from our Gippsland Solar Community Fund, and the generous support of our suppliers at Trina Solar and Enphase, we have been able to ensure the pool is open for much longer each year with the latest pool heating technology, and ensure lower electricity bills through the installation of a 70kW solar system. As a Mirboo North family, our 3 boys will enjoy the benefits of this upgrade for the next 20+ years, as will hundreds of other local families. Its a great result for the community, and for the environment, and we thank the South Gippsland Shire Council for this amazing investment into the Mirboo North community. This announcement by RACV Solar is just amazing for us and we thank them for it said Jodie Pincini the secretary of the Friends of the Mirboo North Pool. It is another piece of the jigsaw puzzle falling into place and demonstrates again the commitment everyone in our community has for the pool. This donation will form part of the $1M community contribution towards the project. Business sponsorship packages are still available for the redevelopment, starting at $1,000. For more information contact Jodie at [email protected]

15.01.2022 The South Gippsland Shire Council have provided an update on the opening of the refurbished pool.

We pass on a big thank you to the South Gippsland Shire and their contractors who have been working tirelessly to get the pool open as soon as possible.

03.01.2022 Last Friday night, the Community Foundation celebrated the kick-off of its 10th anniversary celebrations with a special made cake for everyone to enjoy. The go...rgeous cake was made by Sweet Life Cafe and Cakes in Leongatha and we thank everyone for gathering around to celebrate with us on such a hot night! At the movie night, which was a fundraiser for the Mirboo North Swimming Pool , Chair Paul Pratt emphasised how the Community Foundation has impacted the community since 2010, by working together with many people to help the district thrive. The pool re-development has been one such significant project and we look forward to continuing to help fundraise for the new pool and to see the pool open for summer next year. Pictured: We thank young dedicated pool fundraiser Riley for blowing out our candles on the cake! Also pictured is CEO Ruth Rogan, FotMNP Jodi Pincini, and Chair Paul Pratt. #MNDCF #togetherwethrive #tenyearanniversary #australianphilanthropy #communityfoundation #mirboonorthpool #communitygrants #communityfundraising #gippsnews #southgippsland

01.01.2022 Did somebody say tax deduction? Thank you to the MNDCF, for offering this option for donations.

01.01.2022 The team at RACV Solar have just installed a 70kW system, which will power the new commercial hot water heat pumps at the pool. These heat pumps will keep the pool at the ideal temperature for an extra 8-10 weeks either side of summer, allowing the community to enjoy this amazing facility for longer periods each year. It will also significantly reduce the running costs of the facility, freeing up capital for other improvements around the town.... A big thank you to RACV solar who made a significant donation towards the project cost through their community fund. How good does it look!
