Ridgewood Pool Capital Fundraising Campaign
The first priority of the Ed Nebbins Foundation is to rebuild Ridgewood Pool—a vital community asset in southwest Madison, and home to the Foundation. The pool’s sixty-year legacy is currently in jeopardy. With all-original structures that are twenty years past their initial life expectancy, a structural or mechanical failure that is beyond repair is imminent. Without substantial intervention, the pool will cease to exist, having a detrimental effect on its surrounding neighborhoods.
