General Information for Pool and Pool Programing during COVID-19/ Staff Shortage

In an effort to decrease the spread of the COVID-19 Virus and to accommodate for the staff shortage, Richmond Community Pool has implemented various safeguards that will be enforced to safeguard the community.

These include:

• A reduced overall capacity. This capacity is slated to be changed as conditions change in our local community and state, and was determined to be the maximum capacity at which effective distancing can be achieved at the current time.
• Face coverings for all unvaccinated patrons must be worn while visiting/using the pool. This includes buying tickets, signing-in, and moving throughout the bathhouse, pool deck and to the exit. However, patrons are strongly encouraged to not wear a face covering while swimming in the pool.
• Social Distanced seating. Seating on the pool deck will be arranged for households to stay socially distant from each other. Deck furniture will be placed in groups of one or two all around the pool deck. We encourage patrons to not move seating groups around the deck and bring portable chairs to supplement their need if the group size exceeds 2.
