MAKE no mistake Councillor Ian Chisholm has been right to fly to the defence of the Bowhill Swimming Pool.

The unfortunate blaze which occurred a couple of weekends back led to a temporary closure of the facility and Mr Chisholm has been concerned that, at a time when the Fife Sports and Leisure Trust is looking at its budget, that the incident could put the future of the facility in jeopardy.

The pool is a well used part of the leisure structure in the Central Fife area so hopefully there will be no danger that this could occur.

There is not only the pool at the complex beside the Bowhill Institute but also the sauna, where the outbreak of fire is believed to have started, and the gymnasium, which provides a top class fitness suite.

So it is a very important part of the leisure amenities structure in Central Fife so it is important that it remains.

Councillor Chisholm will certainly be strongly supporting the Bowhill Pool story and hopefully it will soon be fully up and running.
