Litchfield Park to allow Odyssey school use of pool

The city of Litchfield Park has struck an agreement with Odyssey Preparatory Academy to allow the charter school to use its pool for swim practice and meets.

The agreement, approved in August, would allow the Buckeye school to use of the Litchfield Park Recreation Center swimming pool, shower and bathroom facilities at a cost of $1,500 a month running from early September until early November.

The contract is for this year only. Hosting swim meets would be an additional $450 per meet, according to the agreement approved by the Litchfield Park City Council.

The city will provide lifeguards during the practices, which would be scheduled 4-6 p.m. Monday-Thursday, according to the agreement.
