Yesterday, Patty Kondub held her last outdoor Aqua Fitness class ever at the old Camp Mahackeno pool.
It will be open for only a few more days. Then camp is over, the Y closes for cleaning, a groundbreaking ceremony will be held, bulldozers move in, and a big new complex will be built.
Kathie Motes Bennewitz says she’ll miss it. The pool reminds her of when she first moved here in the late 1970s.
In honor of the last session, she and her Aqua Fitness classmates tried to spell “YMCA” with their noodles (front).
Meanwhile, she wonders if “no chicken fights” will make it onto the new rule board next summer.
