Why this petition matters

The closing of the SUNY Plattsburgh pool will have a significant impact not only on the students but on the community as a whole. Many come to use our pool for the Learn to Swim program, open swim sessions, and lifeguard certifications classes. Many lifeguards at the Plattsburgh YMCA are certified through SUNY Plattsburgh. The SUNY Plattsburgh track team uses the pool during practice. Expeditionary Studies, a major at SUNY Plattsburgh, conducts classes to improve students’ kayaking, rolling, and paddle strokes. Without the use of the pool, the students would not be able to learn these valuable techniques in a safe environment. If this proposal is carried out, then we will be the only SUNY school without a pool, limiting students’ collegiate experiences.
