NATCHEZ, Miss. – Adams County supervisors have concurred with city officials to keep the Natchez-Adams County pool open through September. While it was scheduled to close Labor Day for the season, senior citizens made special pleas to extend the outdoor aquatic center’s swimming calendar as the city’s indoor swimming pool is closed for repairs.
The old Carpenter school’s natatorium is normally open year-round mostly for elderly swimmers. With the century-old pool now out of commission – and possibly beyond repair — they asked city and county officials to extend the outdoor pool’s swimming season as the weather remains warm.
The Natchez Board of Aldermen last week agreed to this for the general public contingent on lifeguards being available to work. The Adams County Board of Supervisors acted likewise Tuesday for the Liberty Park pool that’s jointly owned by the city and county.
