“Y” to run Walhalla Swim Pool

Walhalla has approved a contract to authorize the Oconee YMCA to operate the city swimming pool this season. Indications are, according to City Administrator Nancy Goehle, the pool will open Memorial Day weekend for a full season of swimming. A contract approved last night by city council and subject to the city attorney’s approval would  require the “Y” to employ the lifeguards. The city will pay utility costs, the costs of chemicals, handle maintenance, cut the grass, and provide police service.
