As a dedicated lap swimmer who values the health and fitness benefits of swimming year-round, the closure of Johnson Outdoor Pool, the only outdoor pool in Cheyenne, WY, is a significant loss not only to me but to our entire community. This pool is more than just a recreational facility; it's a local hub for families with children who enjoy swimming and gathering outdoors.

With its indefinite closure, families and individuals alike have been left with no option but to rely on the single indoor pool located on the opposite side of town. This not only limits accessibility but also diminishes the joy and health benefits that come with swimming under the open sky.

Repairing rather than demolishing Johnson Outdoor Pool would preserve an essential venue that supports fitness, community engagement, and outdoor fun. Investing in its renovation ensures that current and future generations can continue to benefit from this invaluable resource.

It's crucial for the city council and local authorities to understand how integral Johnson Outdoor Pool is to maintaining our community's spirit and well-being. By signing this petition, you're advocating for the repair and restoration of an essential community landmark, ensuring it continues to serve as a vital recreational facility for all.
