A public swimming pool in the Harbour City is due to reopen Monday.
The City of Nanaimo says in a press release that the main 25-metre tank at Beban Park Pool will reopen to the public on Jan. 17.
Additionally, aquafit classes will resume at both Beban Park Pool and Nanaimo Aquatic Centre and a limited number of swimming lessons will be available for registration starting Wednesday.
The pool at Beban Park had been closed for repairs and upgrades, which include new tiling in the washrooms, LED lighting, water-efficient taps and painting throughout the facility.
“On behalf of council and staff, I would like to thank members of our community for their patience as repairs at Beban Park pool were undertaken. With both pools being fully operational, we are happy that we can once again provide a wide variety of swimming opportunities for our citizens,” Nanaimo’s mayor Leonard Krog said in a press release.
Aquafit classes at both Beban Park Pool and Nanaimo Aquatic Centre require pre-registration, which will be available by phone with a credit card at 250-756-5200 or online at recreation.nanaimo.ca, beginning on Jan. 19.
