🥽 Kelly Cofer Pool Reopens After Two-Week Closure for Maintenance

Tucker's Kelly Cofer Pool has reopened after being closed for two weeks due to maintenance issues, giving residents access to both public pools again. The city closed the pool on June 18 for unspecified maintenance problems, leaving only Rosenfeld Pool available. Thanks to the efforts of Parks Operations Manager Ben Dillard working with electricians and repair teams, the pool reopened July 1 at 4 p.m.

Summer passes are available for $75 (individual) or $175 (family), with senior discounts and daily rates also offered.
