Say hello to Aidan Carter-Frem, Lillian Hanly, Elizaveta Tcherniaeva, and Justin Yip, Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) students working with us to evaluate the usage of the Nantucket Community Pool at 30 Surfside Road. The WPI group has created a survey to accomplish their goal. Responses are anonymous, and survey participants can enter for a chance to win a free one-month pool membership in a raffle. Survey results will help shape the future of the pool and its programming. “The Nantucket Community Pool is a valuable resource for our community,” said NCS Executive Director Alicia Graziadei. “Our facility is open six days a week, Monday through Saturday, and offers programming for all ages. We try our best to provide programming and space for all our island residents and visitors; however, this has become increasingly difficult as our population continues to grow.” If you’re interested in filling out the survey, click the link in our profile.
