PRESS RELEASE - July 29, 2020

Milton-Freewater Pool – Updates to Summer Swim

The Joe Humbert Aquatic Center is updating its summer swim schedule effective immediately.  These changes are being made to help reduce concerns over social distancing and use of the pool during open swim. Pool staff has been adjusting the schedule since the pool opened to ensure compliance with required visibility for the lifeguards.

7/28/2020

The Joe Humbert Family Aquatic Center in Milton Freewater will remain open, but with some restrictions to maximum capacity, use of the slides and deep end of the pool. Maximum capacity of the pool will be capped at 50 patrons, and the slides and deep end of the pool will be closed for now.

Hours of operation will remain the same, although we will be cleaning the pool more frequently during the day which will result in one or two brief 30 minute breaks during the day to allow staff to thoroughly clean and sanitize.
