Our 2024 annual pool maintenance on the Competition Pool has been completed! The Rec/Therapy Pool is closed for maintenance as of Thursday, August 22nd. Our maintenance team will work on one pool at a time to ensure member access throughout the maintenance period. During the maintenance period, there may be an adjustment to the location of swim lessons and Aqua Fit classes. Locations will be communicated through the Technogym app for Aqua Fit classes and via email for Swim School. Please follow us on our Facebook and Instagram and make sure to visit our website during this time for the most up-to-date information regarding pool maintenance. We appreciate your understanding!

Please read the FAQ below!

 

Why is the YMCA closing the pools?

The YMCA must perform annual cleaning and maintenance checks on the pool pumps and filters to keep our systems running at a high-level each year. This scheduled preventative maintenance allows the YMCA to reduce the number of unexpected pool closures for members throughout the year.

When will the pool re-open?

Our goal is to keep one pool open and available for members to use while the other pool is undergoing maintenance. We will begin in the Competition Pool on August 17th and the Rec/Therapy Pool will remain open until preventative maintenance on the Competition Pool is complete. Once maintenance is completed on the Competition Pool, the Recreation/Therapy Pool will close for preventative maintenance while the Competition Pool is reopened for member use. The YMCA will keep our members informed via email, social media, and website banners to inform members of the status of the project.

Changes to the Competition Pool Temperature

When the Competition Pool is reopened after maintenance is finished, we will be increasing the temperature from 82 degrees to 84 degrees to provide a smooth acclimation for those who are used to the 86 degree water in the Recreation/Therapy Pool.

Open Swim During Aqua Fitness Classes

Due to capacity limitations, Open Swim will NOT be offered during scheduled Aqua Fit classes.
