Dickinson Won't Re-Open Swimming Pool

Due to costs for renovation, Dickinson won't re-open swimming pool.

One would think that with all the oil money in the state of North Dakota, money could be found for the swimming pool. Assuming folks want the pool; maybe they don't.

June 18, 2010: Comment -- the state will reduce employers' compensation premiums by $81 million. Couldn't they take just $1 million and put in a new swimming pool in Dickinson. In fact, for $8 million, they could put a new swimming pool in each of the eight largest cities in North Dakota. Oh, well.
