City of Camas will throw ‘going away party’ for pool

UPDATED at 1:40 p.m., Friday, Feb. 8: The “Thanks for the Memories” gathering has been postponed due to Saturday’s forecast of snow. The event will be rescheduled for a later date. 

Camas Parks and Recreation Department is throwing a going away party for the city’s beloved, 65-year-old swimming pool, which closed in 2018, after city officials deemed the pool’s upkeep costs too expensive to maintain in the long-term.
