Gravette Pool now handicap accessible

— A new portable aquatic lift chair is now in service at Gravette's municipal swimming pool, compliments of Teasley Drug of Gravette.

The new chair, purchased at a cost of almost $6,000, was put into service several days ago, making the pool handicap accessible. Mayor Byron Warren accepted the gift from Teasley Drug pharmacist Lindsey Watford.

The pool has been a popular spot of children as summer weather has seen temps near the century mark in recent days.
