West Weekly
We are midway through January and I hope everyone is sticking to their resolutions. Remember it takes 3 weeks to build a new habit so you are almost there! The HVAC system in the pool area is finally fixed and back to normal operations. We appreciate your patience as we dealt with some colder than usual temperatures inside. It’s also been slippery in the parking lot so please be careful as you enter and exit the facility.
Inclement Weather
Bundle up, temperatures are dropping and the forecast is (maybe) calling for snow. We do our best to stay open despite snow but we don't want anyone driving beyond their limits or comfort zone. If we need to close or change the schedule due to weather, we will announce evening closures by 2pm and morning closures no later than 8pm the night before. Circumstances can change quickly so it's best to monitor your email during periods of snow, ice and freezing temperatures.
