Village Market and Bluegrass?

On a related note re: construction:  I also had a chance to check out the new pool and bathhouse ... the latter of which is open and fully functional ... the pool itself doesn't look far behind.

On the men's side there are 5 showers @ $3 per 5 minutes (I'm assuming it's for hot water and cold is still free).  Three urinals and three stalls.  There's also a small / decent sized changing area with benches in between the shower area and other bathrooom facilties.   Nothing extraordinary, but it's new and seems to be a nice setup.   The pool is definitely  impressive compared to the old one ... several notches larger in scale on all fronts.   Hard to explain, but the llayout of the new bathhouse and pool makes it seem like a "real park district pool" setup ... vs. the previous config being smaller & more haphazzard.   With several back issues, it's actually very enticing now to get a season pass for rehab exersizes.  Will post some pics soon.

Wow, way to take the piss out of the positive, guys. Any chance you'll go bash elsewhere?

Spoke with a cashier @ Clarks on Sunday who answered "two weeks" when I asked for an eta for completion of the remodel ... which is great news.

As promised, a few photos of the new pool & bath house - which is integrated into the pool layout along the side.  They were filling up the pool the other day, so probably getting very close.

The last is a pasque flower taken on 4/7/15 in Ophir ... by far the earliest bloomer & they somehow managed to survive even after getting repeated snowed on 6-9" per blast.

Thanks for the photos, FOM!  I'm looking forward to helping break that new bath house in!

Beautiful! Just curious. Is the volleyball court just plain gone? I only ask because of the line sitters.

I'm fairly certain the volleyball courts are still there, although I think one of the nets was down.  The north baseline of the volleyball court is very close to the southern fence line of the pool, but everything still fits.
