Pool upgrades include ADA lift and staff report lifeguard orientation completed

Fort Smith Parks & Recreation Advisory Board · May 13, 2026

Summary

Staff described pool improvements — new HDPE grates, diving well drains and an ADA-required lift — and reported lifeguard orientation finished with seasonal staff ready to open for the summer.

Director (speaker 4) briefed the board on Creekmore Park pool work: HDPE grates are installed, new drains were added to the diving well, and an ADA-required lift was procured that can be lifted off the deck when the pool is closed so it won't interfere with swim meets. "Amber was the one who called the federal government... but luckily with this... the way the one that we let Burton select it, they're the only local people who both do purchase and install," the Director explained.

Staff member (speaker 1) said lifeguard orientation occurred earlier in the week and seasonal staff paperwork is nearly complete; the department reported roughly 25 lifeguards and cashiers onboard and ready for the season.
