CloseAnnual Maintenance Schedule for Pools
Annual maintenance pool closures will take place as usual this Summer as the Sunshine Coast Regional District works to extend the life of the facilities and minimize unexpected closures throughout the year.
During these closures, water is drained from the wet areas (pool, hot tub etc.) of some of the facilities so that the maintenance work can be completed.
The closures will begin in early June with the Sechelt Aquatic Centre, followed by the Gibsons & District Aquatic Facility in mid-July and the Pender Harbour Aquatic & Fitness Centre in August.
The pool closures are scheduled to ensure that at least two pools are open to the public at any one time.
The full schedule of closures is outlined below:
Sechelt Aquatic Centre – Thursday, June 8 to Friday, July 14. Reopening on Saturday, July 15.
Here’s what you can expect during this time:
- All wet areas (main pool, leisure pool, lazy river, hot tub, steam room and sauna) will be closed.
