With painting and repairs completed – and flood waters flushed away – Riverside Pool in Grand Forks is ready to open for the 2022 swimming season today (Thursday). Although both Riverside and Elks will be open simultaneously during the week they will flip flop weekend days – a move implemented during the 2021 season. Due to limited staff members Elks will be open on Saturday and Riverside on Sunday.
The American Lifeguard Association estimates one-third of pools in the United States are impacted by the shortage.
