Some of the individuals involved in the campaign:
Robin Parker. Robin went for a swim on the the 3rd of December 2006, only to find the Coburg Olympic Pool had been closed without warning. She has been writing letters to the City of Moreland and the Moreland Leader ever since. Contact Robin at thepobson@yahoo.com.au
Melissa Alexander. Mel says,

Cate Hall moved into the area about a year ago, with her partner and little girl, for the proximity to the creek and all it has to offer but also for the beautiful outdoor pool within walking distance The family are yet to experience the pool as it was closed without warning just after they signed the dotted line. Cate remains optimistic this unique facility will be re-opened and has been talking to local, state and federal politicians, council officers and councillors about why and how we want this to happen. Contact Cate on kiwitinka@iprimus.com.au
