Home Panorama Broken jar of salsa prompts closure of popular pool — and up to $20K clean-up fees 22-07-2024 02:29 PM Ammon News - Someone shattered a glass jar of salsa at a popular community pool in Massachusetts — prompting its closure during a heatwave and up to $20,000 in clean-up fees, officials said Friday. The Rosemary Recreation Complex, a lap pool with a towering waterslide in Needham, was shuttered after shards of glass flew into the water Sunday, the Needham Observer reported. An extensive clean-up — which includes draining the 220,000-gallon pool, chemically rebalancing and testing it for bacteria — will likely cost the town $15,000-$20,000, according to the outlet. Local officials got a little spicy over the hot sauce snafu. “The entire community suffers both the loss of our pool and in the purse all because one person decided to bring a jar of salsa to the pool,” Massachusetts State Senator Becca Rausch said in a Facebook post. “Please do not bring glass to the pool. It’s not hard to follow this and the other rules. They exist for our collective enjoyment and personal health and safety.” New York Post

Local officials got a little spicy over the hot sauce snafu.

“The entire community suffers both the loss of our pool and in the purse all because one person decided to bring a jar of salsa to the pool,” Massachusetts State Senator Becca Rausch said in a Facebook post.

“Please do not bring glass to the pool. It’s not hard to follow this and the other rules. They exist for our collective enjoyment and personal health and safety.”
