The Dolphin swimming pool in Bendery was commissioned more than half a century ago and has been actively used by sportsmen and water sports enthusiasts for several decades. In 2003, the children's and youth swimming school was closed. Today, a new stage has been launched in the history of the sports facility, restored thanks to the implementation of the state program of the Capital Investment Fund and one of the municipal target programs. The official opening ceremony of the sports and recreation complex was held with the participation of the PMR President - the initiator of the revival of the pool. The President with his wife congratulated residents and guests of Bendery on this long-awaited event. It is symbolic that the swimming pool is opened in the Year of Health, emphasized Vadim Krasnoselsky. According to him, the guarantee of good health is not only and not so much timely access to medical institutions, but, first of all, healthy lifestyle, physical education, sports, good nutrition, and favorable environmental conditions. That is why this year more attention will be paid to these areas. The plans include the opening of many sports grounds and sports infrastructure facilities of larger forms throughout the republic. The swimming pool in Bendery is one of the most anticipated. It was inactive 17 years. Today’s embodiment of Bendery resident’s dream is not the restoration of the old bowl located in the open air, but, in fact, the creation of a completely new - modern and comfortable - sports complex with children's and adult bowls located in warm and spacious rooms, said Vadim Krasnoselsky. The President expressed confidence that the pool will become the center of the active sports life of the city. At the same time, the President called for social responsibility, noting that mandatory time should be allocated for free classes for those who need physiotherapy exercises in the water, patients of correctional institutions and representatives of other categories of citizens who need special protection from the state.
The President expressed gratitude to everyone who contributed to the restoration of the socially significant object of the city’s sports infrastructure, noting that generating an idea is not enough: it’s important to be able to bring it to life. Vadim Krasnoselsky expressed special gratitude for the implementation of the project to the Head of the local administration Roman Ivanchenko, wishing Bendery new achievements and sporting achievements.
