Season Opening Delayed Until June 8
The opening of Centennial Family Aquatic Center has been delayed until Saturday, June 8, due to repair work on a collapsed wall at the Wilmette Tennis Club. The Aquatic Center would have been open on weekends only from 1-6 p.m. May 25, 26, 27, June 1 and 2.
The Park District anticipates opening the facility on June 8 with the full seasonal program in effect. Pool season pass holders will be welcome at Gillson and Langdon Beaches on Memorial Day weekend as well as June 1 and 2.
The damaged wall of the Wilmette Tennis Club faces the concession area of the pool deck. The only way construction equipment has been able to access the damaged wall is through the pool deck. Ever since heavy rainstorms caused the wall to collapse in April, the Wilmette Park District has been working diligently with contractors and the risk management agency to arrive at a repair solution that ensures the safety of all patrons in both the tennis and pool facilities.
While a realistic construction schedule has been set that should allow the Aquatic Center to open on June 8, repairs will continue throughout the summer. The ongoing work should have minimal impact on normal Aquatic Center operations.
2013 Season hours begin Saturday, June 8
Closing Date: Monday, September 2**
**A reduced public swim schedule will be in effect weekends beginning August 13. Hours will be posted at the Family Aquatic Center and on this website. Portions of the facility or the entire facility may be closed each day in order to operate safely when a reduced schedule is in effect. Please call ahead to find out which pools are open each day.
