Ad Astra Pool

Temporary Closure

We appreciate the community’s patience and excitement as we continue work on the new Ad Astra Pool. We plan to open in mid-June. Final work continues to ensure the facility is safe and ready for users. We will accommodate scheduled programs and rentals at other outdoor pool locations and continue to share updates as they become available.
