The aquatics area at Eastlink Centre will be closed from September 1st to October 5th for annual maintenance.
According to the city, the shutdown helps the facility’s longevity as preventative work, repairs, deep cleaning, and upgrades will take place during the closure.
During the shutdown, crews will be among other things, refurbishing the splash pad, repairing the pool basin, tile repairs in family and adult hot tubs, refurbishing the sauna, and overall repair and maintenance on changing rooms.
Community Knowledge Campus Director Angela Redding says taking time each year to complete essential work means they can continue offering the experience users of the Eastlink Centre expect.
“With over 140,000 visitors annually, yearly maintenance and cleaning in the aquatics area is necessary for this facility to continue providing benefits to our community for many more years,” she adds.
The Aquatera Outdoor Pool will remain open to members during the closure until September 21st, and the city has also partnered with the Beaverlodge Swimming Pool so Eastlink Members and GAP holders can access the facility during public swim.
