Who decided to crank the heat? Our ice is starting to have a MELTDOWN! So, we are putting a FREEZE on ice maintenance for the season. With warmer days ahead and deteriorating ice, it's time to thaw out and welcome the return of the sun!

⚠️ Heads up! Due to a hot water issue, Dimond Pool is a tad frigid and will be closed until further notice starting today (1/3)! With that said, don't be too sad! We are moving the morning lap swim and the water aerobics program to West Pool until Dimond is back up and running!

Wondering why lake ice maintenance hasn't started yet? We can't wait to start work, but ice depths/conditions are preventing crews from doing so safely. Hot mop trucks weigh ~7,500 lbs when loaded with water and require 12" of ice, and recent measurements are less than 10".

What do Anchorage and the Wicked Witch have in common—they are MELTING!
We know folks can't wait for ice maintenance to start, but while conditions are wet, our teams are holding off on flooding rinks and measuring ice on lakes. As conditions improve, we will keep you updated!

⚠️ Heads up! West Pool is closed for maintenance today (11/20) due to the circulation pumps acting up and making the temperatures FRIGID! Consider instead joining in a lap swim opportunity at Dimond Pool from noon to 1:30 pm or 6:30 - 7:30 pm.

Heads up, Anchor-town! LITERALLY!
All this heavy, wet snow and the prediction of gusty winds for today (11/15) equals a potentially dangerous combination! If you plan on heading out on trails, please be aware of down trees and breaking branches.
Don't hate us—our good friend, musician, and storyteller, Mr. Clay, is enjoying a week off. That means that our fan-favorite program, Stories with Mr. Clay, is canceled for 11/7. Please don't worry! Our musical master will return for next week's program on 11/14!
