The Günzburg Waldbad now has a support association

Günzburg. Hot summer, cool water. Who doesn’t automatically associate these two words with a pool that guarantees refreshment and relaxation? The Waldbad Günzburg offers space for all generations to swim, sunbathe, play, laze around, meet friends or just relax at the end of the day. Now, the Förderverein Waldbad Günzburg was recently founded.

The Board of Directors and the management of Stadtwerke Günzburg decided to found a sponsorship association to provide long-term support for the Waldbad. The founding meeting took place on June 4, 2024 in the meeting room of Stadtwerke Günzburg and was attended by ten people. The elections of the seven-member board produced the following result:

• 1st Chairman: Bernd Röllig
• 2nd Chairman: Lothar Böck
• Treasurer: Bettina Hofmiller
• Secretary: Johann Stelzle
• Assessors: Maria Buck-Fritz, Dagmar Specht, Helmut Lochbrunner

The purpose of the association is to promote swimming and communal health care. These statutory purposes are to be realized in particular by supporting the Waldbad in an idealistic and financial way, especially by raising funds to ensure the permanent preservation of the Waldbad. Funding can be provided, for example, for play equipment, sunshades and sails, benches and trees, as well as technical equipment in and around the pools. In order to realize this, a corresponding commitment from interested parties, friends and supporters of the Waldbad is required.

“Our aim is to gain many enthusiastic members and supporters for the association and also to develop exciting and interesting ideas for the long-term preservation of our unique Günzburg forest pool,” says Stadtwerke CEO Lothar Böck, who is also the second chairman of the Förderverein Waldbad Günzburg e.V..

Günzburg’s Waldbad is currently undergoing extensive modernization. In particular, a new entrance area, changing rooms and sanitary facilities as well as a new, attractive forecourt are intended to create an even more inviting atmosphere in future.
