December 9th was a great day for Flour Bluff and the surrounding area. Dignitaries and residents gathered to see the new plans for Parker Pool and the work that has begun to reshape the appearance and functions of the pool. When the city wanted to fill the pool residents said “not on our watch”. The pool is a local treasure and it is getting the TLC needed for years. This is a safe area for kids in the summer and they love coming and spending the day swimming and hanging out with their friends and parents know that the pool guards are well trained and ready to make the pool safe for all.
For years District 4 County Commissioner Brent Chesney knew he wanted a project in Flour Bluff and he called one day and said I want to take on Parker Pool as a county pool. Everyone was elated. The pool will get a new paint job, tiles ladders and the pump room will be completely updated, a huge need.
Stay tuned for more information as renovations are being done. The Coastal Bend Friends os Aquatics wishes to Thank all that came to the ribbon cutting.
