Our community facilities
The Quilpie Swimming Pool complex located in Brolga Street has a 25 metre pool complete with shade cover and also a heated multi-purpose pool. A Disability Hoist is available for use. Children will love the Leisure Play Pool equipped with interactive play features including a slide and fountains. Free Entry! Some of the many services offered include Learn to Swim, Stroke Clinic, Squad Training and Aqua-fitness.
Management of the Eromanga Town Pool has been taken over by All About Aquatics this season. The pool will be opened to the public by qualified staff, but opening hours may be subject to change pending staff availability.
The Quilpie Library is located next door to the Quilpie Shire Council Administration building in Brolga Street, Quilpie. Our library services a large rural and remote area, including the townships of Quilpie, Eromanga, Toompine, Cheepie and Adavale. We also service the families on the many sheep and cattle properties in our Shire, as well as those on the oil, gas and opal mines. Due to the vast distances people must travel in our Shire to reach Quilpie, we offer a mail service. Essentially this means that those who reside out of town may request books to be delivered by mail truck.
With your local library card, you can now get 24/7 access online to over a quarter of a million books, music, movies and more. To view the online catalogue, visit www.auroracloud.com.au/OPAC/QPIL
