HI Everyone,
WaterMarc has invited DVE to attend their upcoming Community Network Forum in March, and I'd love to offer the opportunity to any interested members from Swimming, Water Polo or Diving who may like to attend.
These forums bring together community clubs and leaders to discuss priorities, inclusion, and opportunities across aquatic and recreation programs in Banyule.
Wednesday 25 March
2:00 – 4:00 pm
WaterMarc, Greensborough
Afternoon tea provided
At the last forum, discussions included:
* Youth engagement and mental health programs
* Better promotion of aquatic programs and initiatives
* Accessibility in mainstream group fitness
* Collaboration opportunities with swim clubs
* Inclusion and community connection initiatives
You may have noticed some of these actions progressed since then,. This forum is a great chance for DVE voices to be represented and to stay connected with broader aquatic community planning.

👉 If you’re interested in attending on behalf of DVE, please let me know and I can arrange a seat for you.

Thanks everyone — always wonderful to see our club contributing to the wider community 💙

Lee Anderson
President – DVE Aquatic Club
