City of Poughkeepsie posted earlier today on Facebook that Spratt Park Pool is closed for the rest of the season (8/19- 8/22). They said that the pool will only be open for adult lap swim and closed to the public. They also wanted area residents to know that Pulaski Pool will remain open for the rest of the season. We reached out to see what the reason was for the early closure but hadn't received a response at the time of the publishing of this article.

Please be advised that Spratt Pool will be closed for the remainder of the season, 8/19 – 8/22. Spratt Pool will only be open for adult lap swim and closed to the public in the afternoon. Pulaski Pool will still be open for the rest of the season. #cityofpoughkeepsie
