Attention!
We have discovered a leak related issue with the aquatic centre that requires us to drain the swimming pool immediately.
Once we are able to get a closer look at the situation without water in the pool we will be able to make an assessment as to the length of the pool closure. We will communicate updates to patrons as we receive them.

We offer Lifesaving Society swim lessons throughout the year, although July and August are our busiest times. All registrations are now done online
