The Lions Club recently under-
took the Dewey Pool project and have
completed the installation of a long-life
liner, but there is still more work to be
done.
Dewey Pool was built on Rock
Creek in downtown Vernonia in 1938. It
has been a community “swimming place”
for thousands of kids and adults over the
years since that time.
Come join the Vernonia Lions
Club on June 25 and help continue this
work to restore this community gathering
place, have fun, and maybe even make
some new friends.
