Mills Pool opening this Friday

Mills Pool in Bloomington
Mills Pool will open Friday, June 19.

Mills Pool will open Friday, June 19. The pool delayed its opening while the city repaired a significant leak discovered earlier in the spring.  

Bloomington Parks and Recreation director Tim Street said the pool’s plumbing and infrastructure still need attention. The city will do an assessment in the fall to decide the scope of repairs.  

"We know the delayed opening has been frustrating for swimmers, families, and neighborhood residents who look forward to using Mills Pool," Street said in a press release. "We appreciate the community's patience while staff worked to identify the problem and make the repairs needed to safely reopen the facility." 

Mills Pool will be open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., and admission is $7 per person. Admission on July 4 will be free.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
