The 2024 Waldbad season ends at noon on Sunday, September 15

The days are shorter, the weather is cooler. The Waldbad season is coming to an end for this year, also in view of the weather forecasts. To round things off, there will be another dog swim on Monday, September 16.

After the Waldbad had to take a two-month break due to the floods at the beginning of June, the past few weeks since reopening on August 6 have been a complete success. The weather has cooperated perfectly and the many guests have given the Waldbad great support by visiting the facility. Holders of season tickets can recharge their purchased annual tickets in the coming year and use them again.

Stadtwerke CEO Lothar Böck would like to thank everyone who has taken advantage of the sunny days over the past few weeks. “We are glad that we were able to reopen the Waldbad after the flood damage – to everyone’s delight,” Böck continues.
This year’s season at the Günzburg Waldbad ends on September 15 at 12 noon. All weatherproof swimmers are invited to take advantage of the last few days until then. Afterwards, on Monday, September 16, between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., there will once again be a dog swim for the four-legged friends.

“We are particularly looking forward to the 2025 season, when the new building and catering area will be completed,” says Böck.

The Günzburg Waldbad now has a support association

Bernd Röllig has been appointed as chairman. Goals are the promotion of swimming and communal health care.

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.
