Default Why? Pinellas pool closed "indefinitely

Just wondering....went to our Pinellas neighborhood pool yesterday to find it closed with sign stating "indefinitely". Still closed. Anyone have any idea....does not seem to be for the regular maintenance that is normally closed for half day.

Someone probably "pooped" in the pool.
They have to shock it with bacteria killers and that takes a while to take effect.

Our pool was closed for a week once because someone had died in it. They had to drain, clean, and refill.

it's the "indefinite" that concerns us - and there's no info from Big Cypress on what the problem is


See? I told you not to worry.

Are all these comments supposed to be funny or lack of intelligence?
