Lap Pool at the Rec Center would close July 1 for about 3 weeks

Teton County’s Recreation Center lap pool is set for a full shutdown starting July 1, and county commissioners will review a plan that would close all indoor aquatic facilities to the public for about three weeks during the earliest, messiest construction work, according to a staff report headed to the June 29 meeting. The closure period is tied to demolition, tile work, and plaster installation, with staff saying the full closure is needed for safety and access. staff report

If you rely on the pool for summer routines (laps before work, kids’ lessons, team practices), watch for the exact reopening plan after those first three weeks. Parks and Recreation says it intends a phased reopening once the initial work is done, but the lap pool itself would stay closed longer during filling, startup, chemical balancing, and curing. staff report
