FROM THE 'DIVE INTO THE CANTON POOL' PAGE:
We’re excited to share some great news with you! We have advised us to perform a final load test on the pool and play structures. This is a vital step and a major milestone for our community to make sure everything is running safely and smoothly before the winter season and full open next summer.
To complete these tests, we will be hosting a pop public swim at the pool, and the general public is invited to come swimming today, Saturday, August 24th from 2pm-5pm. We have teamed up with the Inwood pool who is sending over guards and an EAP. Please know this is just part of our final checks to ensure the pool meets all safety and performance standards.
Temporary restrooms will be available, but no bathhouse, please come in your swim attire. We will have to limit capacity if we get to full, but if that’s the case, we will ask individuals to limit their time at the pool and we will clear the pool and let a new group in every hour. We will do this to ensure the optimal number of people get to test the new facility.
****release of liability waivers must be signed. Parents must be present and sign for individuals under 18.****
We will use the entrance located at the corner of E. 2nd St. and N. Kidder St.
You are welcome to bring lawn chairs and coolers with non-alcoholic beverages.
We appreciate your patience as we finish up these important steps. We can’t wait to fully unveil the new pool and provide a great experience for the entire community!
