The first public swimming baths in Maryborough were floating baths built last century in the Mary River. These baths were swept away by a flood in the 1890s. These were replaced in 1906 by a 33 yard (30 m) pool adjacent to the local council gardens near the river. George Ambrose White, a local widower had donated the then huge sum of 1000 pounds towards its construction after a local boy drowned swimming in the Mary River. The water was initially unfiltered river water. Attempts to use bore water had failed. Competitive swimming began around 1922 with the Mary River Swimming Club. The Club flourished on and off for a few short years till 1934 when a bitter dispute between officials and swimmers over financial assistance to go to the State Championships caused a walkout of some very talented swimmers. Two of these were Merv Witt, an Australian 1650 yard (1500 meters) champion, and Tom Mutta King, the first Queenslander to break 60 seconds for 100 yards. They then competed for the Bundaberg Club. The Mary River Swimming Club soon folded. Source: www.maryboroughswimmingclub.org.au/history.htm
