A reminder that it’s the final two days that the Jefferson Municipal Pool is open for the year and there’s a special event happening tomorrow to officially close it down. 

The annual Doggie Paddle is sponsored by the Animal Protection and Education (APE) Charity of Paton and Boone and it is tomorrow from 5-6pm. Owner Linn Price says dogs and their owners are encouraged to spend an hour at the pool for a free-will donation. She notes this is a fundraiser event for APE to continue to provide low cost spay and neutering services for pets. Additionally, there will be dog toys for the canines to enjoy while in the pool.

Once the event is over, the pool will be closed for the year. The pool is open today and tomorrow from 11:30am-1pm for adult lap swim and 1-6pm today for open swim and 1-5pm tomorrow for open swim.
