If you're looking to get in some waves at the Swan Valley Aquatic Centre, now is the time to hurry.
The facility remains open through Friday. You can see the schedule for the remainder of the week here.
After this week, Danielle Gordon-Broome, director of recreation for the Town of Swan River, says they'll be closed for the entire month of February.
"It's our annual shutdown. We drain the pool and take care of any maintenance needs," said Gordon-Broome. "It's our chance to give the facility a refresh. We complete any cosmetic repairs, paint, and some deep cleaning. Things that we can't do when the pool is full of water."
There will also be staff training next month. In a typical year, the community shuts down the pool in September. This year, it's been delayed to next month due to their large pipe hanger project. The project replaced some rusting supports to ensure the longevity of the facility
The pool is set to re-open on Tuesday, March 3.
"The facility, for the most part, will look the same," she ended. "We hope to have positive programming and changes that way. It's a very exciting time for us. We use this time to go through everything, refresh, and come back with some exciting things."
Friday is the final day before the month-long closure.
