Why the Birdland Pool won't open on time this summer
DES MOINES, Iowa — A supply chain issue is pushing back the opening of the Birdland Pool this summer, according to Des Moines Parks and Recreation. The city said it still hasn't received a shipment of filters, which were ordered in October 2024, that are required for the safe operation of the pool. That means the pool may not open until early July. Over 1,000 origami cranes to be displayed during Iowa State Fair as tribute to Japan 'We know how much our community looks forward to summers at Birdland Pool, and we share in their disappointment over this unexpected delay,' said Ben Page, Director of Des Moines Parks and Recreation. 'We're doing everything we can to open the pool as soon as possible and appreciate everyone's patience and understanding as we work through these challenges.' A $1.75 million improvement project of the Birdland Pool is underway to extend the life of the facility. It includes deep-end reconstruction, new mechanical systems, and pool repainting. Once the pool opens, daily admission will be reduced to $1 as a way to recognize the community's patience with the issue. As soon as the necessary filters arrive and are installed, the city said staff is in place to fully open the pool.
