Staff and swimmer safety is a priority at the local swimming pool in Gull Lake.

The Crescent Point Pool has announced on the town's webpage that they will not be opening for the 2020 season.

Gull Lake Recreation Director, Sara Kuntz, stated that, aside from not knowing when Phase 4 of the Re-Open Saskatchewan Plan would start, they realized that running swimming lessons and public swimming safely and effectively would not be possible.

Lifeguards and swimmers are often put in a position where social distancing isn't an option.

The Crescent Point Swimming Pool in Gull Lake will hopefully re-open for the 2021 season.
