Centre operations co-ordinator Chris Hanerston said families enjoyed a number of games, and a play of the centre’s inflatables.
Participants also enjoyed a barbecue on the day.
Mrs Hanerston said organisers were pleased with the turnout.
She said it was the first time the centre had hosted a party on Kannamaroo Festival weekend.
“The turnout was fantastic,” she said.
The event is a fundraiser for the centre’s Open Doors program.
Mrs Hanerston said about $700 was raised for the program through the party.
“Open Doors is about getting people involved in health, wellness and exercise who cannot normally often due to their financial impacts,” she said.
Mrs Hanerston said the centre ran about four to five pool parties each year.
She said the next one would be during the Australia Day weekend in January.
