KRISTI HINE / TRUE DAKOTAN Parker Pulizzi splished and splashed at the City of Wessington Springs municipal pool with his grandma, Angie Mentzer (not pictured) on Monday, June 16, 2025.
For the first time in a decade, community members can enjoy the Springs pool free of charge for the 2025 season.
The decision came after members of the volunteer park board addressed the city council with concerns that attendance was down due to admission fees. In addition to raising those concerns, the board also helped secure $2,000 in donations from local residents to help offset pool costs.
