🌊 Island Grove Pool prep is officially underway! ☀️
Did you know the man-made swimming hole at Island Grove is completely prepped and refreshed every summer before opening day? Each season, the pool is pumped down, raked out, refreshed with new sand, refilled using a well pump, and then fully chlorinated to get ready for summer fun.
To help ensure a safe swimming experience, the water is tested daily in-house and sent to a certified lab weekly for additional water quality testing.
Our DPW crew has been hard at work getting one of Abington’s hidden gems ready for another great summer season, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back on June 20th!
