Both our indoor and outdoor pools are operating under our normal operating hours.
**Aquatics Face Covering Policy**
Indoor Pool
Face coverings must be worn while on the pool deck. Swimmers may remove their face covering only once they are ready to enter the water. Shortly after swimmers exit the water, they will be asked to put their face covering back on immediately.
Outdoor Pool
Face coverings are required on the pool deck if patrons are unable to consistently maintain a distance of six feet from individuals who are not members of their household. Face coverings are also required when in the restrooms and when interacting with our staff members.
We ask that patrons be diligent in adhering to these policy updates when visiting our aquatics facilities.
