Clean-up Costs Town Time and Money at Rosemary
July 18, 2024
• After a visitor to the Pools at Rosemary accidentally broke a glass jar near the water, Needham Park & Recreation needed to shut down the lap pool for it to undergo extensive cleaning.
Part of the Rosemary Pool Complex had to be closed this past week due to an effort to clean broken glass that resulted from a broken jar. While visitors still had access to the family swim area and the splash pad, the lap pool was off limits for an extended stretch of time during what has been an especially hot and humid summer. Ashley Julier reports on the clean-up.
