Notice regarding closures and program cancellations at the Golden Swimming Pool:
In line with our air quality procedure, and with community and staff safety as our top priority, we will be cancelling Swimming Lessons this morning, July 24, 2024 (from 9:55 to 11:55 a.m.).
During this time, we will offer public swim with a lifeguard on deck - children under 7 require adult supervision and must be within arms’ reach at all times.
Our smoke procedure follows the advice of the Air Quality API, which you can view here: https://www.iqair.com/ca/canada/british-columbia/golden
When AQI levels are between 151-200 the pool is open for people to swim, but no instruction is given for Parent & Tot Swim, Aquafit and/or Swim Lessons.
If smoke levels hit 201 we are required to close the pool for all programs.
For those that have pre-registered for programs, an email will be sent out and refunds issued.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding during these smoke-related cancellations and closures. If you have feedback or comments, please email pool@golden.ca
