7-23-21 fdl lifeguard shortage

The Fond du Lac Parks director says he hopes this year’s abbreviated outdoor swimming pool season is an outlier.   A lifeguard shortage has forced the city to limit the number of weeks the Fairgrounds Aquatic Center and Taylor Park swimming pool are open this summer.   Parks director John Redmond says one area the city will look at for next summer is increasing the pay for a summer lifeguard position.   Redmond says  the outdoor swimming pools do not generate revenue for the city.     He says they are a quality of life enhancement for the community.  The Fairgrounds Pool will close for the season at the end of next week.   The Taylor Park Pool will be open in August.
