We are thrilled to announce that the Slatington Lions Club and the West Lehigh Area Lions Club have each awarded a generous grant of $18,850 to the Northern Lehigh Recreation Authority (NLRA), totaling $37,700. These funds will go towards multiple ADA improvements at the Northern Lehigh Swimming Pool, enhancing accessibility and ensuring that everyone in the community can enjoy the facility. The improvements will include the installation of an ADA ramp into the pool, ADA steps, ADA-compliant bathroom stalls, toilets, sinks, mini ramps throughout the pool house for wheelchair navigation, and an ADA water fountain. These upgrades will make the pool a more inclusive and welcoming space for all visitors. This donation comes on the heels of NLRA’s second successful summer managing and operating the pool since taking over in 2023. The past two seasons have seen the pool become a vibrant hub for families and friends, and these enhancements will further improve the experience for all. We are deeply grateful to both Lions Clubs for their continued commitment to our community and for helping make the Northern Lehigh Swimming Pool a more accessible place for everyone!
