AQUATIC CENTRE-LAP TIMER CLOCK
A square plastic sheet with a top and bottom lip folded away from the front face. There is a circular dial divided up into 60 seconds with numbers 0, 15, 30, and 45 in red. In between each number are dashes orientated to point away from the centre of the object. There are 3 smaller dashes in black before a larger dash in grey in between each number.
Below the top of the dial are the letters I and Q with a dolphin placed to appear as it is jumping through the Q.
In the centre is a dial that has both hands the width of the dial that ends at the end point of any black dash. One half of the dial is black and the other is a clear plastic with a slight peach colouration. The dial is connected to an electric motor on the reverse of the timer. The motor has a black cord with a two pin plug.
Below the dial are two blue wavy lines meant to represent water.
This lap timer was acquired from the Armadale Aquatic Centre when renovations commenced in 2017. The Centre was originally opened in December 1980.

MEDIUM
This collection of items was used at the Armadale Aquatic Centre. The Centre was opened in December 1980 and was closed in 2017 to make way for the new Armadale Fitness and Aquatic Centre which was opened in 2019. These items were collected as they represent the important role played in the social life of the local community and what was involved for a local government in running a public pool.
