Pool funding Continued from A1
to the table, leaving the project short $300,000. As a result, the
task force is asking the community to pitch in.
“I want to bring that asset back to life for the community,” Wood-
ard said. “It’s a wide-reaching benefi t to the community,” he said
noting the competitive events that take place there as well as the
recreational and therapeutic activities.

Originally built in 1952, the pool has served more than 150,000
residents and since its construction, Cottage Grove has not reported
a single incident of a child drowning—classes at the pool a manda-
tory part of the district’s education plan.
The plan Parent presented to the board on Monday would re-
place the pool itself, which would allow for competition meets and
include an eight-lane set-up, as well as address the aging locker
rooms and add a hot tub. According to the district’s research and
