Update: April 19th, 2020
In accordance with Public Health protocols, the Northside Community Pool will remain closed indefinitely. As a result, our spring session of swimming lessons will not proceed. For those who have already registered and paid for lessons, two options will be available:
1. Use the payment as a credit toward future swimming lessons.
2. Full refund.
Refunds will also be available for any pool rentals (such as birthday parties) and day camps. To request a refund, please send an email to northsidecommunitypool@gmail.com with the following information:
· Contact name and phone number.
· Service being refunded (lessons, pool rental, day camps, etc.)
· Child’s name.
We will begin processing refunds starting Monday, April 20th. Refund cheques will be mailed in the coming weeks. In addition, expiry dates on swim cards have been extended. Please note the facility remains closed to allow for appropriate physical distancing. We ask for your continued patience during these extraordinary times and we very much look forward to seeing you all again once this public health crisis ends.
