LETTER TO THE COMMUNITY
We urgently seek your support to help save the Crookston Community Pool as the Crookston City Council has recently voted to close this vital community resource.
Closure of the community pool negatively impacts our community in the immediate future and for years to come. With limited health, wellness, and recreational opportunities for all ages, the pool has served as an integral part for regular exercise, leisure activities and recreation, and swimming lessons for our community. The vast majority of community members from all demographics, socio-economic statuses, and multi-generations will be affected by this closure but our youth will be particularly impacted by this decision as it would eliminate swimming lesson opportunities and safe recreational activities.
As a community, it is crucial to come together and urge the city council to reconsider their decision regarding the pool’s closure. Your immediate action and support are essential to ensure our voices are heard and to advocate for this invaluable resource.
Together, we can make a difference! Let’s rally to protect the Crookston Community Pool for the benefit of our entire community!
Please do your part: sign and share this petition on all resources!
