Many Kelowna residents will be happy to know that another one of the city’s pools is set to reopen.
The pool at Parkinson Recreation Centre, which has been closed for months due to COVID-19, will reopen to members on Wednesday.
Things will be a little different, however, as people will have to pre-book a 45-minute time slot if they want to swim.
“We’re really looking forward to having the pool back up and running,” said Mariko Siggers, City of Kelowna. “As with the fitness centre, members will need to book a time in advance to ensure that proper physical distancing can occur.”
The pool will be open between 6 am and 6 pm on Mondays, Wednesday and Friday, between 8 am and 6 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays and between 8 am and 11:45 am on weekends.
Aquafit classes will also restart on Wednesday, but they will be by registration only and people can do so starting on Tuesday at 7 am.
For now, the steam room and hot tub remain closed at this time.
