Pool Will Not open in Galena This Summer

Galena’s pool season has been canceled this year. City Council members have voted unanimously to not open the city pool for the 2020 season. The decision was made as a result of Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s five-phase plan to lift state-imposed restrictions that were implemented because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which would not have allowed the pool to open until mid-July at the earliest.
