Pool rates may force swim club to fold

Rising costs in hourly pool rental fees may force the Fort Frances Aquanauts Swim Club to fold.

Club President John Dutton has made a plea to town council to “hold the line” on fees insisting a threefold increase over three years is excessive and unfair.

Dutton has even suggested ways the town could reduce pool costs including lowering the water temperature and using a pool cover.

Although the town budget including user fee hikes has been adopted, town council has agreed to reconsider hourly pool rental fees.
