Beginning just after the July the 4th holiday, Northampton MUD will begin construction of a splash pad adjacent to the Inway Pool. This addition will add a fun and exciting change for our younger pool users. Unfortunately, this activity will require us to close the pool for approximately three weeks. The question has been asked “Why close the pool in the summer?’ 1. We wanted to get some use of the new feature this season and 2. July and early August are the periods of lowest use. During this period swim team is over, lessons have wound down, many are on vacation and the heat is unbearable on the deck and parking lot. Even the water temperature exceeds 92 degrees. We should have several weeks of great weather for breaking in the new splash pad.

During this work the fitness center, playground, and park will be business as usual. Northcrest Pool will easily handle the displaced users for a few weeks.
