Urbandale, IA – September 12, 2012 – The Urbandale Pool closed on August 27 for annual maintenance and to address the failing pool liner. After evaluating the condition of the pool liner, it has been determined that the pool will not re-open until the liner is replaced, removed or another solution completed.

This was not an easy decision. However, to continue to serve in the best interests of the pool’s users, the pool will remain closed until further notice. Further updates will be available on the Urbandale Swimming Pool’s website at www.urbandalepool.org. The Urbandale Parks and Recreation Department thanks all pool users for their understanding.

The Urbandale Pool is the area’s only indoor pool and is open year-round. It hosts public/recreational swim hours as well as lap swimming and water exercise classes. A detailed pool schedule is available at urbandalepool.org.
