YMCA pool reopens after repairs in Henderson County
The Henderson County YMCA pool reopened Tuesday after repairs to skylights and loose plaster that caused a February closure when three chunks fell from the ceiling. Director Tim DeViese said the shutdown allowed time to paint walls, refinish the pool deck, and install a second heater to speed heating during drain and refill.
