LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) - Star City Shores will be closed Friday, and the remainder of Thursday, while crews clean up after a bathroom-related incident in the pool and work to rebalance the water chemistry.

The closure of the pool near 33rd Street and Nebraska Parkway is necessary to ensure the pool is properly sanitized and safe for swimmers. Staff say they hope to reopen the facility by Saturday, but that will depend on how quickly the cleanup and chemical treatment process goes.

“Remember, if you’re not feeling well (especially if you have tummy troubles), it’s best to skip the pool for everyone’s safety,” Lincoln Parks and Recreation said.

10/11 will provide an update when Star City Shores announces its reopening.
