Sooner Pool closed due to lightning strike to pump

May 30, 2018

The City of Bartlesville-owned Sooner Swimming Pool is closed today after lightning struck the pool’s pump during an overnight storm on Tuesday.

“We have ordered the new pump and it is being overnighted to us. It should be here tomorrow, so hopefully we will have the pool back up and running sometime tomorrow,” Public Works Director Keith Henry said Wednesday.

Updates on the pool re-opening can be found on the City’s Facebook page, City of Bartllesville GOV.
