Weddin Shire Director of Environmental Services Brendan Hayes told council meeting the attendance into the new facility had been extremely high.
“The center’s increased patronage across all programs is beyond expectation,” Mr Hayes told councillors.
Mr Hayes said 6414 visited the pool in November, an average of 246 people each day.
“The community response has indicated residents are very proud and appreciative of this valuable asset into their community,” Mr Hayes said.
“The manager and pool staff are to be congratulated and thanked for their commitment to the operation of the facility, especially in response to the exceptional patronage being experienced in the period since opening,” he said.
An official opening of the new centre will take place on Saturday, February 17.
The centre will host the 2018 Mountains and Plains Summer Swimming Championships on February 10 and 11.
