Countdown to Aquatics and Recreation Victoria Regional Conference

Aquatics and Recreation Victoria’s commitment to members in regional as well as metropolitan areas is set to see the staging of its third Regional Conference in Ballarat on Wednesday 9th and Thursday 10th May.

Bringing together a diverse and knowledgeable group of industry leaders and decision makers from local government, aquatic and recreation facilities, product suppliers, service providers, consultancies, institutes of learning and Government departments, the Aquatics and Recreation Victoria (ARV) Regional Conference creates a forum to hear the issues, understand the challenges, explore the trends and contribute to the solutions through a regional lens.

Victoria has 279 publicly owned pools and hundreds more recreation facilities and, while pools and recreational facilities enjoy a profoundly successful connection with the community, the sector faces many challenges.

The Conference also incorporates a trade exhibition for industry suppliers and providers to showcase products and services.
