Kingsmere Park Wading Pool – sad news

At lunch today, I received a call from the City’s summer recreation coordinator who looks after our neighborhood.  She shared with me that a bonfire was started within the Kingsmere Park wading pool last night, and there is damage to the drain pipes.  The wading pool is out of service until further notice.

Maintenance crews have to take a look at the extent of damage before they can determine when it can be fixed.

I asked if a police report was filed.  My contact is looking into this and will get back to me.
