JOIN MAYOR BALLARD IN CELEBRATING NEW AQUATIC FACILITY AT BETHEL PARK

Please join Mayor Greg Ballard and the Bethel Park neighborhood for the “Community Celebration and Dedication” of the new $2 million aquatic facility at Bethel Park at 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 7, 2010.

Funded through the Indianapolis Parks Foundation, thanks to a generous grant from the Lilly Endowment, Inc., Bethel Park Aquatic Facility now offers a 25-yard, 6-lane pool with a three—story speed slide and interactive spray ground. Indy Parks and Recreation closed Bethel Pool during the 2009 summer season because of irreparable leaks and decaying infrastructure. The new aquatic facility opened to the public July 28, 2010 after a four-month construction schedule.

Join neighborhood friends and families for a pool party with Bethel Park’s band, Visions Ministries Fashion Show, Radio Disney’s Move It!, speed slide races and popsicles.


WHO: Mayor Greg Ballard, Indy Parks Director Stuart Lowry, Indianapolis Parks Foundation Executive Director Cindy Porteous, community leaders, youth and staff

WHAT: Bethel Pool Community Celebration and Dedication

WHEN: Saturday, August 7, 2010 at 1 p.m.
