What a fantastic public pool not far from the capitol and old Sac. It has been reopened and couldn't have been nicer. I needed to swim some laps and the water was perfect temperature. Despite the lanes being 22 yards, it was great... Thanks to the staff!

So many dead and live bugs floating in the pool. Counted at least 8 different species! Dead and live roaches, honey bees, June beetles, black beetles, yellow jackets, mosquitoes, and two other types of small beetles. Asked the lifeguard how often they skim clean the pool. They said 3x week.

Waited a year for the pool to reopen only to find out it’s not open on weekdays 😥
