Two LV public gymnasiums reopen

Tuesday, July 23, 2002 | 9:01 a.m.

Two Las Vegas public gymnasiums have reopened after analysis of small traces of mold showed no significant health risk.

Veterans Memorial on South Pavilion Center Drive and Durango Hills on Durango Drive were closed last week as a precaution after the mold was discovered.

Environmental engineers evaluating the mold said it appears a small amount of water leaked into the gym areas, causing the mold to grow. Mold naturally occurs in the environment and can cause an allergic reaction in sensitive people if it becomes airborne.
