Has anyone ever recorded the average days each year the Ghormley pool was
open over, say two decades? Having lived here for 35 years now, I have seen
too many cold summer days when the pool was standing empty, lifeguards were
let go, and children and adults who wanted to swim (or even continue
swimming lessons) had plans canceled because of clouds, rain, and wind. I
just feel intuitively that Priscilla and Jack are right on in questioning
the value of investing in a pool with only one or two months' (at best)
potential use, but it would be interesting to get concrete statistics
regarding accessibility over time.
