The City of Kawartha Lakes is temporarily closing the pools at Lindsay Recreation Complex in Lindsay and Forbert Memorial Pool in Bobcaygeon and cancelling all aquatic programming from Sunday, January 2nd to Saturday, January 8th.

The municipality announced the temporary closure on Friday (December 31), “to help ensure the safety of the public and staff” given the omicron wave of the pandemic.

Any registrations for drop-in public swim programs during this time period will be cancelled and refunds will be issued automatically to registered participants. Drop-in public swim programs are scheduled to resume on Sunday, January 9th.
