Marshfield's New Aquatic Center Should Be Open By End of July

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2021 -- 9:10 AM

(WDLB) Marshfield’s new aquatic center should open about a month from now.

That’s what city Parks-and-Recreation Director Justin Casperson told the Common Council last night. Casperson said he is targeting a July 16th or 23rd opening for the new Vandehey Waters, but a nationwide plaster shortage is holding things up.

And while construction is not exactly on time, Casperson said the project is within budget. Casperson also said the city is still accepting donations for the project.

Casperson also noted the tiling is happening inside the pool right now. He also said the perimeter fencing is being installed this week, and lots of amenities are starting to arrive on site.

Casperson also said light poles went up last week, and concrete walks and the pool deck went in this week. Ground was broken last July for the new facility, on the same site as the former Hefko Pool, which disappeared from the city’s landscape last August, after 86 years of use.
