Letter
from UH Swimming Coach on pool status:
Aloha, August 22,
2007
I hope everyone
has had a good summer. I have seen some of you around town and
the question I am always asked is, “when is the pool going to
open?” Well I have some good news and some bad news. Construction
is still on going and it looks like late September before we
will have the whole facility back. They are behind schedule
and still have a lot left to do. The Good news is we can start
back with Evening Master’s this Monday Aug. 27. The practice
will start at 5:30 p.m. and go until 7:00 p.m. We have NO LIGHTS
so we need to start as early as possible. We also have NO LOCKER
ROOMS until at least Sept.17 or until further notice. The OUTDOOR
showers work and that will be our only means of showering. The
next question is when do we get to start Morning Master’s? I
am hoping to start Morning Master’s on Monday, Sept. 10 at 5:45
a.m. I know this is later but we have no lights while the construction
is going on and Sunrise is not until 6:00 a.m. The temporary
lights from last year as of right now do not work, and the 2
lights that worked last year are done. Once Construction is
over in the next few weeks I hope to at least have the temporary
lights back online. I know this has been a SERIOUS inconvenience
for everyone and there is no one more than I that hopes this
construction will get done soon. I will keep you updated with
any new developments that happen in the near future. Once again
I would like to thank everyone for their patience during this
time, especially the Morning Crew, and I hope to see everyone
at the Pool again real soon.
Mahalo,
Victor
