Pine Bluff city officials and members of the Pine Bluff Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Redcoats cut the ribbon on the new Pine Bluff Aquatics Center on Saturday, June 29th.

During the grand-opening, Mayor Shirley Washington discussed the collaborative efforts of previous mayors Carl A. Redus Jr. and Debe Hollingsworth, along with multiple City Council members, who all pushed for the construction of the facility. Washington also noted that for about 50 years, Pine Bluff did not have a community pool after the closing of Townsend Park Pool.
