North Middle School pool closed, activities canceled

Menomonee Falls - A mechanical failure caused the North Middle School Pool to be shut down last week, canceling a number of activities at the pool. Officials spotted the problem Thursday and the pool was closed until the problem could be fixed. All activities have been canceled, including all Community Education and Recreation open and adult lap swim, swim lessons, Special Olympics swimming, and Dolphinette practice.

The Community Education and Recreation office attempted to notify swim lesson participants by phone. According to Menomonee Falls School District officials, maintenance personnel are continuing to assess the situation.

On Monday, the School District confirmed the pool would be closed until at least Feb. 5 and further updates would be given as a more specific timetable for the pool to reopen is determined.
