The City of Pullman announced Thursday the Reaney Park pool will be closed for the rest of the year after broken glass was discovered near the pool.
The City announced the pool’s closure due to safety concerns in an Instagram post. According to the post, the pool has to be completely drained in case any glass made it into the water.
With ongoing drought conditions, the City will not be able to refill the pool this year.
Though the main pool is no longer open to visitors, the lap pool and splash pad will remain open. Both will temporarily close on Aug. 25, but will reopen Aug. 30 during Labor Day weekend.
An alternative to the Reaney Park pool for WSU students, staff and faculty is the Student Recreation Center pool. The SRC pool is open until 10:30 p.m., Sunday through Saturday, and opens at 9 a.m. on weekends and 5:30 a.m. on weekdays.
