26.05 Pool Opening Delayed 😭

Greetings Members & Friends,

Unfortunately, we had a particularly meticulous inspector on Thursday. We are unable to address all the issues they found before this weekend. Even though the pool is otherwise ready to go and these issues haven’t caused a problem in all the years we’ve been open, we could get into serious trouble if we open without a passing inspection. The pool board has decided not to take that risk and delay opening until next weekend at the earliest.

We are really sorry, folks. We’re doing the best we can.

If you think we should take the risk and open anyway, then maybe YOU should consider joining the board! There’s no pay, long hours, and hard labor. But when you see folks enjoying themselves in the pool, it makes it worth it. And who knows? Maybe you’ve got better ideas than us. If you’re interested, please send an email to board@eastparkpool.org.

New Reservation System

We’ve had several requests from the community regarding swim lane reservations and private rentals. To help maintain fair access, we’re asking members to reserve swim lanes. We hope it will help members coordinate use. You can also request recurring reservations, but please commit to those reservations since they can exclude other swimmers from using the facility. Reservations will be displayed on our calendar so you can know in advance how busy it will be. Reservations will be reviewed and confirmed by staff so it may take up to 24 hours before they are published on the calendar. If there are any issues with your reservation, staff will contact you.

Is the pool open?

We are also working on providing webcam snapshots and better status updates to allow members to see the current status of the pool, e.g. lightning closures.

Thanks for supporting East Park Pool.
