Pool Cleaning

Posted by sbrammer | Weekly Update | Tuesday 23 May 2006 9:19 pm

This weekend I,along with several others, went to Camp Manitoumi for the annual pool cleaning that my Sunday School class does.
This is what it looks like when we start:

We use power washers to spray all that stuff off and into the deep end

And once it’s that far we waint for the pumps to drain enough water out theat we can get into the deep end and power wash the sides of it

Then when we get done with that, we use those buckets you can see floating around to dredge out all the leaves and muck till there isn’t enough left to get with the buckets.
The refilling starts. Takes about 100 hours to refill the pool back up.

While we were up there, One of the guys that went with us is used to working the night shift, so he didn’t sleep at all. So what did he do all night? Well, this is what we found the next morning when we got up…..

    This is Lesley from Camp Manitoumi. I was googling Camp and found your blog and this post. Great pics of the pool– Thanks to all your group for taking on this big project every year. You’d never believe it’s the same pool if you could see it today! LOL at the picture from the dorms! So THAT’s where the 3D deer went!

    Wow! That pool was gross! Thanks for cleaning it. I am one of the life guards at camp (both this summer and last) and I really appreciate the clean pool.

    Thanks so much for cleaning the pool at Camp Manitoumi. My family heads out there next week for family camp. My daughter will be there for Junior week later this summer. You did a fantastic job and we really appreciate your hard work! May God richly bless you today.
