LETHBRIDGE, AB– Swimming pools, recreation facilities, arenas, and spray parks were included in stage two of Alberta’s Relaunch announcement on June 9 which allows those facilities to open.

However, just because those facilities are allowed to open, doesn’t necessarily mean they will.

Previously, the Cor Vaan Ray YMCA said they had no set date when the pool would open in their facility, but now they an approximate date.

The City says if everything goes to plan with the relaunch strategy, these facilities and amenities are scheduled to open:

Outdoor Pools

· City staff are meeting with partner operators to discuss the feasibility of opening Henderson Outdoor Pool and Westminster Outdoor Pool this summer. We will make an announcement about these facilities once a decision has been made.

However, these facilities may reopen and do so in a timely manner.

The city says there will be many restrictions, like time limits on visits, limited or restricted use of change rooms or other amenities, and no usage of hot tubs, saunas, or steam rooms.
