The Comox Valley Aquatic Centre leisure pool will be closed until Thursday, November 27. Over the last several weeks, the leisure pool has had numerous fecal incidents requiring super chlorination. To maintain effective pool chemistry and safety for staff and patrons, the leisure pool needs to be drained, refilled and have chemical levels rebalanced.
“We are committed to providing a healthy and safe environment,” explains Jennifer Zbinden, Senior Manager of Recreation Services. “Thank you for your patience and support as we have navigated this issue.”
Ways to Help Reduce Unexpected Shutdowns:
- Shower before entering the pool
- Remind children of bathroom rules
- Wear appropriate swim diapers
CVRD recreation staff will be adjusting the scheduled programming. Changes will be communicated through PerfectMind and will also be available at www.comoxvalleyrd.ca/schedulechanges.
The Comox Valley Regional District is a partnership of three electoral areas and three municipalities operating on the unceded traditional territory of the K’ómoks First Nation, the traditional keepers of the land. The members of the regional district work collaboratively on providing sustainable services for the benefit of the diverse urban and rural areas of the Comox Valley.
