Seattle, WA— Seattle Parks and Recreation will reopen Evans Pool (Green Lake), Queen Anne Pool, and Medgar Evers Pool to the public for open swim, lessons, and programming starting the week of September 19.
During the closures, facility repairs/improvements have taken place at all three of these facilities.
