MENDOTA – Mayor Boelk announced Thursday that the Mendota Pool will not be opening this year. Mendota is not the only town keeping the doors to their pool closed this year. This announcement comes just two weeks after the city of Ottawa stated that their Riordan Pool would not be opening, due to safety concerns.

 
Illinois Department of Public Health Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike delicately explained Thursday that COVID-19 can spread via fecal shedding, and that “wouldn’t be conducive to promoting social distancing and decreasing community spread.”
