Maintenance — Mark Bunger
Mark led another discussion about the cost and installation of a winter pool cover. A hard cover is required if we have a cover, but not having a cover at all is an option. Then we talked about a leak from the bathrooms which is causing water to pool in the parking lot. We have a bid from Beacon Plumbing and will get one or two more bids before getting this repaired this fall. After learning about the plumbing project it was decided to save the purchase of the optional winter cover until another year. The winter cover would be nice to have in order to prevent leaves and debris from collecting in the pool, but the repair of the plumbing leak is a much higher priority. We still plan to purchase a new summer cover next spring.
The meeting adjourned at 7:40 pm. The next meeting will be held at 7 pm on Tuesday, November 6 at Arnie Rusten’s.
Respectfully submitted,
Vicki Bengeult from Nancy Krueger & Pete Keller’s notes

The summer season at the pool went well. We had a great group of lifeguards and swimming instructors. Final cleanup and furniture storage is underway.
The board is discussing options for improving the play area. If you have suggestions, please let us know.
Maintenance — Mark Bunger
Mark found a $1500 winter pool cover with 20 year warranty. The board voted on and approved the purchase up to $2000. The extra amount is to allow for purchasing a new summer cover at the same time. The new winter cover is needed to meet safety code requirements.
Investigation into drainage problems in the parking lot near the pool house will commence as soon as possible. Mark will schedule this with a plumber.
The meeting adjourned at 7:40 pm. The next meeting will be held at 7 pm on Tuesday, October 2 at Nancy Krueger’s.
