Swimming Pool Update

We've missed our swimming pool! The good news is that we are planning to open the pool on Saturday, July 3, so get your suits and sunscreen and head over for a cool and relaxing swim.

We have a temporary fix in place so that we can operate the pool for the rest of the summer. Due to the construction on East 9th Street, the route to the pool will have to be changed slightly. East 5th Street will be accessible from the west on Friday. The best way to drive to the pool will be from East 5th Street, turning at the entrance to the Chase County School athletic fields and drive to the parking lot north of the pool. Those who walk to the pool would be wise to use the same route since walking across the fairgrounds will be somewhat dangerous with all the heavy construction equipment in use. East 9th Street will likely be closed until the first part of August.

Permanent repairs will have to be made after the pool closes in August. The Park Board will be meeting this week to determine rates for the summer because of the shorter time period. Stay tuned for more information.
