The momentum for a public pool is building because this community recognizes that swim safety is a basic necessity for our kids. Post this link on Facebook right now and email our city council members to let them know we expect action.

I've been aggressively in our city council meetings for over 15 years to please provide OUR youth with a NEW POOL.. we can build lakes, remodel downtown, build additional parks but NOTHING for our YOUTH in OUR community.. Our City Manager & Mayor should be ASHAMED of themselves... We as a community NOT just ONE person but all churches and neighborhoods should overwhelm the city council meeting with our demands to build a NEW POOL with OUR TAX dollars!
I would love for my grandchildren to be able to enjoy a community pool like I did as a child. It would also be great to teach swimming lessons to children in the community and possibly save lives!
This is so badly needed. Personally knew and loved 2 precious young African American children who tragically lost their lives in an accidental drowning. Sadly children here have no safe place to go to learn to swim. We need a local place where they can go and learn to swim and where parents can be taught water safety. Please consider this as a heartfelt plea for the safety of all our children.
This would be great for our community.I'm a parent of a 5 year old and I have been praying that I find a way for her to learn how to swim.
We need a public swimming pool back in our community. Drowning is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury worldwide.
I would love the chance for my 3 kids and I to have the opportunity to learn how to swim we have no pool in Perry Fl, saddenly
I teach swim lessons.

A public pool would be great for our community and open jobs for teenagers as well. Great idea.
