Walhalla Pool to open May 27

The Walhalla Municipal Swimming Pool on W. Main Street will open for a new season Friday, May 27—the start of the Memorial Day weekend.  Season passes are now available from the YMCA which, once again, will operate the pool for the city.  The “Y” may be reached at 864/962-4049. The idea to add a splash pad for the youngest swimmers will have to wait another year.  Nancy Goehle, city administrator, said the city council voted after an executive session last night to delay the construction of the splash pad until the pool closes at the end of the summer.
