Pool opens Memorial Day Monday
The annual opening of the pool got pushed back two days this year.The pool opened to residents and guests on Memorial Day Monday rather than the traditional Saturday of Memorial Day weekend.
The two-day delay was because the final day of lifeguard certification was May 30.
Pool is opens weekends only (June 5-6) until Van Horn School gets out. Pool opens daily June 9.
When pool is open, hours are always noon-8 p.m.
In the late summer the reverse is true. Once Van Horn is back in session, the pool will be open weekends only through Labor Day.The pool is open daily to adult lap swimmers from 6-8 a.m. For a key to the second gate, go to the office during business hours 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
No lifeguard is on duty for morning lap swimming.
