The 90-year-old pool at the Washington YMCA is undergoing major repairs and will not open this weekend, as initially believed. The pool has been closed since April 11th and will remain out of service until further notice. Becky Harkema, director of the Washington YMCA, tells KCII news they are currently accepting donations for work on the pool.

The pool was originally constructed in 1924. In December of 2013, a facility assessment report was presented regarding the YMCA facility and in March of 2014 the YMCA board unanimously decided to build a new facility.
