Hey Outlook!

With today being the official opening day we just wanted to hop on here and let you know with all these cooler temps and rain we have been getting, the pool temperature is quite cold. Unfortunately this is out of our control and we look forward to those +25 days/nights to help keep the pool temp up.

With that, we don’t anticipate swimmers being able to swim long/at all but we welcome you to come and purchase your season passes, meet the staff and check out the pool. It is also a great time to practice biking and walking safety around roadway intersections and parking lots.

See you at the pool!

PARENTS! Please take the time to review bike safety with your children prior to opening day! We’ve moved the bike rack to the other side of the parking lot entrance to help keep the kiddos safe. We encourage children using their bikes to stay close to the RecPlex and looking both ways on their way to the bike rack.

DRIVERS: PLEASE drive slowly and safely watching for children coming to the pool whether they are walking or biking.

We will have additional signage going up next week to help direct bikers and traffic.

*the wind was not paid actor in this video but wanted to be the main character anyway*

See you Monday May 18th!

Just a reminder that it is highly recommended to purchase your season pass prior to opening day to ensure the line up can move through as quickly as possible! You can purchase your season pass at the Town Office during regular business hours.

The pool is filled, water features are working and we are circulating folks! It took us a total of 18hrs to fill the pool thanks to our workers who were willing to stay later in the evening to keep the water filling and ensuring there were no leaks.

Incredibly proud of Team Outlook for working hard to get us to this point so quickly. A less than ideal spring kept us a little worried but nonetheless, we got the job done.

We are that much closer to opening day. Opening day will be determined next week based on water chemistry, water samples and the health inspection. Keep an eye on this page for the hours of operations calendar - we will post as soon as we know we’re good to go to open.
