History

The pool was originally built in 1966 after a tragic accident took the life of a young boy. Ernst and Kathrine Wagner had a vision with the hope that everyone would learn to swim in a safer environment and therefore, funded the construction of the Ernst O. Wagner Memorial Pool.

Friends of the Pool was formed in 2005 to help address the funding gap needed to support the pool.  We have contributed $7500 yearly for operating expenses, all thanks to donations from the community. We also raise additional money every year to help with repairs, resurfacing, and purchasing of needed equipment.
