Volunteer Pool Community Centre is temporarily closed today due to an act of vandalism. During the evening (Aug. 28), the glass of a large patio door was broken at the facility, resulting in shattered glass in and around the pool, making it unsafe for use. The pool will be closed today and is expected to reopen on Wednesday, Sept. 4 to allow crews to work on clean-up and repair.

“We are disheartened that our facility that serves so many in our community has been vandalized,” said Callie Graham, Program Supervisor - Volunteer Pool/Seasonal Facilities. “We apologize for any inconvenience this closure causes to our valued members and look forward to safely reopening the pool next week.”

Members can access Churchill Pool and the Canada Games Complex during the closure period.
