A community pool consistently on the chopping block will remain open after an anonymous donation.
The YMCA of Greater Dayton was able to secure a $40,000 donation to help Trotwood and the YMCA keep the pool despite financial difficulties running and operating the pool.
“We were shocked,” said Gayle Horton, Community Executive Director for the YMCA of Greater Dayton. “This donor had given us money in the past in certain amounts. We had met about a month ago and they assured us of the gift.”
