Popular Camp Casey pool is closed this summer

The swimming pool at the Camp Casey Conference Center won’t be open this summer due to an unexpected maintenance issue.

“We know how much this pool is loved by the community, so we wanted to send this announcement as soon as possible,” said Robyn Myers, manager of conference services.

“Many people are making their summer plans, and we’re sorry we won’t be able to offer any public swimming or swim lessons here at Camp Casey.”

North Whidbey parks and recreation district will offer swimming lessons for those looking for another location.

The Camp Casey outdoor pool was last renovated in 1995. For years, the Coupeville Lions Club has awarded swimming lesson scholarships.
