I wish to recognize the many volunteers that have transformed the once lacking Prospect public swimming pool, into a real community jewel.
The city leaders have made this a place to be enjoyed by all residents.
This was no small task, mind you. Three city council members -- Ron Beatty, David Ellis and Jesse Ickes -- headed this effort.
Local union workers, many businesses and city workers gave huge donations of materials and labor.
The mayor and my grandson, Angelo, and Ickes' two sons, Timothy and Samuel, were members of the painting crew. A job well done, guys.
The summer passes will soon be available, so please purchase enough for the whole family, to support the project.
So please contact them and let them know you appreciate their gallant effort.
This is one example of how Altoona can become a better place to raise a family.
