Renovated Zelienople pool makes a big splash

Owen White, 3, of Zelienople splashes around in the kiddie pool fountains at Zelienople Community Pool on Monday.

ZELIENOPLE — Delays caused by weather and ongoing renovations made Saturday's opening of the pool in the borough's Community Park that much sweeter.

The first day of sunshine in more than a week didn't hurt either.

The pool, which has been closed since the end of the 2017 season for a renovation project, saw more than 300 people take a dip Saturday, putting a cap on the $1.3 million project. In addition to a new pool area, the project included renovations to the bathhouse, handicapped restrooms and a new concession stand.

The opening was delayed twice in the past month, the most recent holdup a result of heavy rain and flooding at the end of May. The pool area filled with water, and the pumps needed to be sent away to determine possible damage as well as cleanliness.
