Recreation: Parks and Holiday House Pool
HOLIDAY HOUSE POOL
HOLIDAY HOUSE POOL 2020 SEASON CANCELED
It is with great regret that the West Rockhill – Sellersville Joint Recreation Authority has determined that given the current health department restrictions revolving around the COVID-19 pandemic, it is not feasible to open the Holiday House Pool this summer. There are too many factors affecting safely operating the facility and following health and safety guidelines for the Authority to feel comfortable operating and opening to the public. The pool facility also has some structural issues, such as leaks, that need to be addressed before the pool can open. This decision was a difficult one and very sad and disappointing to the Authority as it is to our members who have always been supportive of Holiday House Pool. We look forward to opening in 2021.
