Kentland Pool Opens

The Kentland Rotary had a informative program from Mike Rowe, Park Board President, regarding the newly opened community pool. Mike indicated approximately 500 showed up for the Grand Opening Saturday and Sunday enjoying the many new features of the pool. After the discussion Mike gave the group a tour of the pool and pump/filter room, explaining from start to finish how the water entered the pool, chemicals where applied and then discharged into the pool area. Mike indicated with this being a new pool the water has to be filtered completely every two hours compared to four or more in the previous pools. If was interesting to know that the new pool doesn’t hold much more water than the old pool, but the layout is much more functional.

The community should be proud of the new swimming pool and the many years of enjoyment young and old will have. The Kentland Rotary would like to thank the Park Board, Town of Kentland and many dedicated individuals who have made this vision into reality.
