    Don't really have any info to add to your pool situation, but I noticed your email address. If it means what I think it does, it's relevant to say that I'm Scoutmaster of a new troop in Chattanooga, with 3 Anglos (including my son) and 10 Burundian refugees living here. My son has been visiting a nearby Latino church, and thinks some of the boys in that church may join this fall.

    Does anyone have an answer to this situation? We just had 8" of rain after a heatwave and it caused a sinkhole in our pool from sand washing away. What should we do? Pool is brand new this season.

    Thanks

    The best I can tell you is to provide a curtain drain, to keep water from washing out your bottom and shore up the affected area as best you can to keep the damage from spreading. If you can post a pic or 2 of the area, I might be able to provide more specific info

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries
