The very best decision ever was to go for innovation in 1995, as Bos and Joel know. “The old concrete bin that was 60 years old at the time, it went out. And beautiful swimming basins came back, complete with a recreational pool, toddler bath and a competition pool. That was then, partly thanks to the efforts of then mayor Gerrit Oosting. Because it would have been quite a few feet in the earth, I would not have been able to do that swimming pool.”

Joel thinks back to the times of yesteryear with nostalgia. “Do you know what the great thing was? We could all go our way here, it was freedom of happiness. If we wanted something new, then with that innovation too, then we arranged it. That way we got a little by little that the Zwanemeer has become a beautiful and attractive recreational bath,” said Joel.

Subsequently, the open -air bath, Klamer Bos, finds out, always with the times, and so there are silently all kinds of improvements. Nowadays there is ample job for sports and games, with a beach volleyball court and a playground, and for some extra swimming pleasure for the youth a wide slide. “We can be proud of this beautiful swimming pool. And as long as I Besta, and the municipality will continue to work for swimming pool Zwanemeer, then it is also guaranteed for 100 years.”
