Children have already started swimming lessons at the pool, which opened quietly last week, just in time for the summer heat.
Because of the high temperatures expected this weekend, Pool Manager Duncan Cruickshank has decided to open the Julia Butler Hansen Municipal Swimming Pool this Sunday.
Lessons, lap swim and water aerobics are available five days a week. The pool will be available for open swim from 11:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 7:30-9:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Admission is $2.75 for children and seniors and $3.30 for all the ages in between. On Saturdays, admission to the pool will be free for the first 50 patrons.
The pool telephone number is 795-6515. The schedule and information about admission costs, season passes, pool rentals and lessons can be found on the Town of Cathlamet website, http://www.townofcathlamet.com.
