Many members of the YWCA have been curious about the reopening of our Aquatic Center. I wanted to provide the latest information we have which was reported in the Ask Sam column of the Winston-Salem Journal recently. Most people are not aware of the extent of the damages that the YWCA suffered as a result of the flooding and are therefore not aware of the cost involved to get the Aquatic Center back in service. The total cost for repairs is almost $600,000, which includes $280,000 just to have our electrical repairs completed so we could partially reopen the facility in August. The week prior to Christmas we received a check from the insurance company that covered the electrical issues. We are in conversation with several people who are interested in partnering with us for the remaining dollars which will enable us to reopen the Aquatic Center. If these partnerships are obtained, the project could be completed in February. However, we do not have firm commitments yet.
