Brookline Community Pool Initiative

This week's guest speaker will introduce us to the Brookline Community Pool Initiative, a community-led effort advocating for the creation of Brookline's first public outdoor community pool.

The initiative aims to provide an affordable, accessible outdoor gathering space where residents of all ages can swim, exercise, learn water safety, and connect with neighbors. Supporters emphasize that an outdoor pool would expand access to swimming lessons, provide a safe place for youth during increasingly hot summers, create seasonal jobs for teens, and strengthen community health and wellness. The proposal also seeks to address the fact that Brookline is one of the few Greater Boston communities of its size without a public outdoor swimming facility.

Join us to learn more about the vision for this exciting community project, hear about its progress, and participate in what promises to be an informative discussion.

Location and Zoom link will be sent to made available through the Member Calendar and via email to those on our mailing list.  If you would like to attend and are not on our mailing list, please email brooklinerotary@gmail.com or contact President Alex Neary by clicking on his name at the left.
