Two-thirds of the J-Team (Jared, Jeremy, and Joe) vacuumed the pool Friday evening, the chlorine was adjusted, and Saturday morning (May 28), neighbors gathered to join forces in repairing the fence on the west side of the pool. As outside temperatures moved toward the 90s and beyond, tools and building supplies materialized at the scene.
One troublesome vine was cut down and a 15-foot section of fence removed. Supporting members were mounted first, and then the boards secured to the rest of the fence. Crew included Mark Storrs, Joe Elmore, Jared Hall, Jeremy Ellis, Gary Blaiss, and Brook Roberts. While the fence repairs were underway, water samplings showed that chemicals in the pool had reached desired levels, with the chlorine a little on the high side (desirable for especially hot, sunny days).
The pool was declared officially open.
President Roberts, digging around in the party house kitchen, found a box of old Haversham Club documents dating from as recent as 1980 and going back into the 1950s. After several persons pawed through the documents for a few minutes, the documents were turned over the Haversham secretary for selective digitizing in the interests of preserving historical records of the Haversham Community.
