Pool Work Continues As Opening Nears

Work continues to complete the new Northern Wasco County Aquatic Center in Thompson Park in time for its grand opening on June 20.  Scott Hege is overseeing work for the Northern Wasco County Parks and Recreation District, and says final inspections will take place next week, adding the pool itself is about ready to go.  Hege says a fence around the pool will be completed before the final inspection occurs, and there will be landscaping work taking place after the pool opens.  He adds the biggest work they have to do is completing the splash pad outside the district office, but that doesn’t have to be finished for the pool to open.  District Executive Director Phil Lewis says the pool might open to the public a day or two before the June 20 grand opening if final approval is received from the Oregon Health Authority.
