Wallaceburg pool to temporarily close ahead of summer

The Wallaceburg Sydenham District Pool will close for just over a month for maintenance.

The closure has been scheduled to last from May 24 to June 28.

According to the municipality, maintenance including repairs and deep cleaning will happen during that time, in an effort to ensure the safety and long-term reliability of the facility.

All swimming lessons, public swims, lane swims, aquafit, and private rentals will be paused. Those looking for an alternate place to swim during this period can visit the Gable Rees Rotary Pool in Blenheim or the pool at the Chatham-Kent YMCA in Chatham.

The Wallaceburg pool is expected to reopen on June 29.
