Since the 1950's, the W.T. Morris Memorial Pool has been a favorite summer recreation spot for many area families. In 2005, the existing 50-year old pool was replaced with a new $400,000 heated pool that is handicapped accessible and has a new deck and improvements to the bath house. The new pool was built with the help of a Land and Water Conservation Fund grant and public donations.

The bath house underwent extensive renovations between the 2018 and 2019 pool season with support from the Gratiot County Community Foundation, DeShano Construction, and others.

Local artists painted a beautiful  mural on the pool house's south facing wall in August 2023.

The pool is located at 400 North Mill Street just north of City Hall and St. Louis's downtown shopping area.
