“Just be patient, cause this is a process.”

Tyrone Zeigler said those words to Matt Drzik during the March 29 edition of A.M. Beaver County, and the “process” in this case is the process of Tigerland Wave Pool becoming a reality–a reality that has reached the stage of achieving a feasibility study. The study will be conducted by the Aquatic Facility Design group, and a public meeting will be held Thursday for the public to provide input.

Zeigler showcased a cautious optimism about the current status of the Tigerland Wave Pool, stating that there is “a lot of stuff going on right now” as the process continues. One of the main hopes for Tigerland LLC is to gain control of the property where the old pool was located (near Wallace Run Road), and to start making improvements on that as soon as control is gained. Zeigler said that there will most likely not be a pool for the summer of 2022, but that he will not give up on this personal quest to give back and better the city in which he grew up.

“Just continue to believe in me,” Zeigler said. “This process allows the kids and the youth to have something to do during the summer, so that they don’t ‘run the streets’ like I used to.”
