2025 Opening Day at Mosby Pool is delayed
EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WEHT) — Opening Day for Evansville city pools is right around the corner, but one pool will not open on time.
Lorraine and Rochelle-Landers Pools will open Saturday morning, however Mosby Pool's opening date is delayed.
Evansville hopes to have Mosby Pool open on Saturday, June 7. Everything was ready to go for the pool to be open this Saturday, but some of the machinery failed earlier this week. The city says it's been working on getting the problem fixed ever since.
While families will kick off their summer on Saturday at Lorraine and Rochelle-Landers, Mosby Pool on the west side will be empty, hopefully for one more week.
During preparations, some unforeseen circumstances came in the way.
'A combustion pump that was connected to the motor and some fabricated piping broke,' says Evansville Parks and Recreation Executive Director Danielle Crook. 'This is what the contractor is working on repairing right now.'
We're told the repairs will be made this weekend, and the health department will test the water, hopefully giving the green light for guests to enjoy for the season.
Lorraine and Rochelle-Landers Pools will open for the first time this summer at 11 a.m. this Saturday.
