Pool work begins

CREWS began tearing down what was left of the existing Haxtun Swimming Pool on Friday, Jan. 6. The demolition comes after news that the Town of Haxtun received a Great Outdoors Colorado grant for $923,000 for a new public pool. The new pool features plans for lap lanes, a toddler slide and new light fixtures, as well as zero entry, or stairless, access to better serve people with disabilities and young children. Plans are to complete work on the pool later this year....
