The LSSE web site though still hasn't been reflected to include these new hours ... and there hasn't been any media attention them either.... so most of the public probably won't know about them. People won't use the pool more if they don't know. <br /><br />Subject:Expanded Open Swim Hours at War Memorial Pool<br />Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2012 19:05:08 -0400 (EDT)<br />From: Amherst Leisure Services <br /><br />War Memorial Pool<br />Additional Open Swim Hours<br /> <br /> The renovated War Memorial Pool is now open and we are fine-tuning our pool schedule and programming hours.

Both days were beautiful and warm and it would have been great if it had stayed open. Yesterday, we were told that the lifeguards were going to have training and that's why the pool was closed. Since they are all certified to be lifeguards, it's not clear what additional training would be needed at this point, especially for a position that only lasts for two months.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
