Safety Policies

• Our Pool has capacity of 24-48 participants (depending on the session).
• Participants should assess themselves daily for symptoms of common cold, influenza, COVID-19, or other infectious respiratory disease before attending a program.
• Participants who are ill, including participants of essential service providers, should not attend a program or access the Community Centre.
• The use of masks is recommended indoors for people 12 years of age and older and who are not yet fully vaccinated. 
• Staff, program participants, and the public may wish to continue wearing a mask for some time – please respect this choice and be aware of others’ personal space.
• Registration and payment is required for most programs to help reduce the capacity to allow for physical distancing. Limited drop-ins may be permitted.
• Participants are encouraged to arrive no more than 10 minutes prior to your program time. Patrons may be required to line up prior to entering the facility.
• If a participant, instructor or staff member is unsure if they should self-isolate due to illness they should contact 8-1-1 or the local public health unit. They can also be advised to contact a family physician or nurse practitioner to be assessed for COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases.
• All participants are encouraged to practice proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette by covering coughs or sneezes.
• Drop-in for the pool and fitness centre will be limited to 20% of our capacity. Only registered or approved drop-in participants may enter our facilities. We accept cash, credit or debit for drop-in payment.
• Our facilities will not be open for general socializing/congregating at this time. You will be asked to leave the building once your program or appointment has ended.
• Change room access is limited to pool users. Lockers are limited in the change rooms. Please leave valuables at home.
• At the end of your swim please change quickly and leave the building within 10 minutes of the end of your swim.
• Lane Etiquette:
  • Only short course lanes are available at this time, no 50m lanes.
  • Kick boards, pull buoys and other equipment will not be available at the site.
  •  Swimmers can bring their own equipment if they choose
  • Each double wide lane has a capacity of 6 swimmers.
  • Do not change lanes if that will result in over 6 swimmers in a lane.
  • Maintain a minimum of 5 meters between yourself and the swimmer in front of you.
  • Do not stop and rest at the end of the lane. If you need to rest, please climb out of the pool and rest on the deck.
• Individuals booking tickets online with Leisure Access will need to bring their Park Board OneCard which will be scanned to validate if you are currently enrolled in the Leisure Access program.
