The Mountville Community Services Foundation (MCSF) is in the midst of a project to surface the Mountville Community Pool, located in Froelich Park, 350 W. Main St., Mountville. The last major resurfacing was completed in 2006, and it is usually recommended to repeat the process every six or seven years. “ We’ve stretched it,” said MCSF board member Harry Morgan. “The concrete (finally) started breaking down,” added fellow board member Bill Eckman. The delay was prompted by the cost for the project, which is estimated to be $59,000. The project is expected to be completed by Wednesday, May 1, which is when the board and pool staff members will begin readying for
the start of the new pool season. The pool will open for Memorial Day weekend - Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, May 25, 26, and 27 - and be open for the first weekend in June Saturday and Sunday, June 1 and 2. It will be open daily beginning on Saturday, June 8, and will close on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 2. The pool hours will be noon to 8 p.m. each day. An open house has been set for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 27. “Hopefully the pool will be filled by then,” Morgan remarked. During the open house, members of the public may tour the facility, meet the coaches of the Wave youth swim team, and learn about SwimAmerica swimming lessons. Folks may also purchase pool memberships, the cost of which will be discounted until May 1. While memberships are not required, See MCSF Golf Outing pg 9
