Capacity Limits
On particularly hot days, especially on the weekend, our pool often gets close to reaching its capacity limit. In order to ensure that Season Pass Holders are never turned away due to capacity limits, we have instituted the following policy:
WHEN THE NUMBER OF PATRONS IN THE FACILITY NEARS ITS OPERATING CAPACITY, WE WILL STOP SELLING "DAILY ADMISSIONS" PASSES, AND ONLY ALLOW ENTRANCE TO THOSE WITH A SEASON PASS.
Other Notable Rules
NO OUTSIDE FOOD PERMITTED IN POOL GROUNDS (except Sundays)
NO GLASS ITEMS PERMITTED
NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES PERMITTED
NO SMOKING PERMITTED
Individual season Passes ARE NOT transferable to any other individual for use.
If the pass is lost or stolen, please report it to the Pool Manager immediately.
There is a $5.00 per card Pass Replacement Fee.
Sunday Family Picnic Day
Sunday is considered "Picnic Day". When you come to swim on Sunday, bring your favorite picnic lunch along. Enjoy!

COVID-19 INFORMATION
*** UPDATE ON COVID-19 FACE MASK GUIDANCE ***
FULLY VACCINATED PATRONS AND EMPLOYEES ARE NOT REQUIRED TO WEAR A FACE COVERING IN THE POOL FACILITY.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health updated its universal masking requirements to say that people who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 are not required to wear a face covering when indicated in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance for fully vaccinated people. The Department of Health has stated that this update applies to individuals inside and outside of local government facilities, court houses, and other government buildings.
For the Community Pool, this means that those who are fully vaccinated (as defined by the CDC) are not required to wear a face covering. All unvaccinated pool patrons and employees must continue to comply with the mandates that have been issued by the Commonwealth.
The Borough has no additional rules or regulations above and beyond what the Commonwealth requires.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
