Outdoor pool is where it's at

The summer of 2009 should be an especially busy one for the Ancaster Lions Club outdoor pool. The outdoor pool will accommodate public swimming, swimming lessons and Waterfit programs while the Ancaster Aquatic Centre is closed for an extensive renovation.
Ancaster firm Bestco Construction was awarded the contract earlier this spring for more than $850,000 in upgrades. The pool is expected to remain closed until October 18.
Renovations includes a new roof, structural foundation improvements, boiler and dehumidification upgrades, new lighting, acoustic ceilings and lockers facilities. The project is the largest renovation the building has received in its 30-year history.
Public swimming at the Lions Outdoor Pool is available on weekdays from 1:15 p.m. to 3 p.m. and on weekends from 1-4 p.m.
