Three, two, one, cannonball!
Harrisburg’s Jackson Lick Pool on N. 6th Street will reopen for the summer season on Wednesday, June 12, after receiving some much needed TLC.
The city recently completed patching and repairing the aging pool using $55,000 that City Council allocated in April for the updates. At the time, Harrisburg officials said that the updates were necessary to be able to open for the summer.
In addition to the repairs, the Public Works Department is currently putting the final touches on painting the bathhouses.
The pool will be open throughout the summer on Tuesdays through Sundays from noon to 6 p.m. each day. Admission costs $4 for adults and $2 for children.
Harrisburg’s second public pool in Hall Manor has been closed for several years, but is slated to be replaced and reopened in the coming years. In April, council approved using $8 million in federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to construct a new pool in Hall Manor, which would likely take over two years to complete, city officials shared.
