Crews from Coplein Painting of Monroe were busy in New Glarus this week helping prepare the village swimming pool for another summer season.

According to Mark Coplien, the company acid washes and performs touch-up work on the pool each year as part of regular maintenance. The pool is then fully repainted every three years, which he said is considered the industry standard.

“This week we cleaned it and touched it up,” Coplien said. “It’ll be painted next spring.”
