Celebrating the 20,000th Visitor at the Sayn Outdoor Pool

The Sayn outdoor pool recently celebrated a notable achievement by welcoming its 20,000th visitor of the season. To commemorate the occasion, a small event was organized by the pool management and local community representatives.

The Celebratory Event

On August 13th, the milestone visitor, Beate Friedhofen, was greeted in a festive manner by a small welcoming committee that included city officials, swimming pool management, and members of the Support Association Bad Sayn. The gathering included light refreshments, entertainment, and a commemorative photo session. Beate was presented with a voucher as a gift for being the 20,000th visitor, and pool staff and local officials expressed their appreciation for the pool's growing popularity.

Beate Friedhofen: The 20,000th Visitor

Beate Friedhofen, a long-time resident of the area, has been visiting the Sayn outdoor pool since her childhood and considers it a significant part of her summer experiences. She regularly encourages her friends and acquaintances to visit the pool. Beate is also an active member of the Support Association Bad Sayn, working towards the preservation and future of the outdoor pool.

Impact on Pool Popularity

Reaching the 20,000th visitor underscores the Sayn outdoor pool’s steady increase in popularity compared to previous years. This boost is attributed to several factors including recent improvements to the pool infrastructure, expanded opening hours, and enhanced programming for children and adults. Local residents and visitors alike appreciate the pool as a safe, clean, and enjoyable place to cool off during warm months.

The Stadtwerke Bendorf team is optimistic that many more visitors will find their way to the Sayn outdoor pool due to continued good weather. Despite a slight downturn during a rainy phase earlier in the season, the pool is once again well-attended due to recent high summer temperatures. The Sayn outdoor pool continues to be a popular destination for visitors.

Peter Schneider, the First Deputy Mayor of the city, stated that it's great to see the outdoor pool is well-received despite some weather-related interruptions. The welcoming committee now consists of Peter Schneider, Michael Frömbgen, Nicole Miller, Natalia Fojt, Marco Urz, Karl-Heinz Buggenthien, Beate Friedhofen, Renate Kopper, Bernhard Wiemer, and Michael Woischwill. Renate Kopper, not previously mentioned, is also part of the welcoming committee.

The welcoming committee, comprising city officials, pool management, members of the Support Association Bad Sayn, and other community representatives, celebrate home-and-garden life by organizing events to promote outdoor-living enthusiasts, as exemplified by Saturday's gathering for the 20,000th visitor, Beate Friedhofen. Beate's loyalty to the Sayn outdoor pool, shared by numerous residents, underscores the growing lifestyle trend prioritizing the integration of nature and wellness into daily routines.
