SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - Mitchell voters yesterday approved an eight million dollar indoor swimming pool.
President of the Mitchell Aquatic Club, Ryan Huber says the vote speaks volumes about the community. Huber says the vote means the community is pro-active and residents are tired of Mitchell youth not having all the different extra-curriculars to participate in.
Huber says he was anxious over the vote. He honestly thought it was the flip of a coin. He says they had the right message but he also knew that some Mitchell residents thought the pool plan came in at the last second.
Over 2,600 were cast in MItchell and the pool passed by 237 votes.
