The Pierre outdoor pool is closed until further notice.
Earlier this month, Burbach Aquatics, a swimming pool consultant, determined that the ongoing problems with the pool are most likely caused by a restriction in the filtration system. The supplies needed to make long-term repairs to the system have been ordered. The City will start the repair process as soon as possible.
Beginning tomorrow, outdoor pool punch cards can be used at the indoor Aquatics Center located at the YMCA. The punch cards will be accepted at the Aquatics Center daily from 1 p.m. - 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. until the outdoor pool reopens. No additional punch cards will be sold until the outdoor pool reopens.
Water exercise classes held at the outdoor pool will also be moved to the Aquatics Center until the outdoor pool reopens.
