James City County Recreation Center Indoor Pool Update
Due to an electrical issue on the pool deck, the indoor pool and hot tubs must remain closed until repairs are made. Results of our research indicated the pool needed to be re-grounded. We have engaged a specialist to determine the work needed, and that will be followed by the hiring of a repair contractor. No pool reopening date is available at this time. In the interim, patrons can elect to freeze their Center pass if the pool and the hot tubs are the only amenities used. For more information, stop by the Center Front Desk or call 757-259-4200. For patrons presently enrolled in a swim session, a prorated refund will be applied to your household. We’ll provide updates as soon as the course of action is confirmed. We apologize for the inconvenience to you and your workout routine.
