Pool Schedule Changes and new Pinnacle Pool

 

A reminder that starting this Monday (May 3 rd) there are some changes to our regular training schedules. This occurs each year in May and June as we share the pool space with other user groups who use the facilities during these months. This year we are extremely lucky to have access to a new 25m pool in North Vancouver at the Pinnacle Hotel. The coaches had the opportunity to look at the pool last week and it is beautiful and will be a great place for our groups to train.

The Pinnacle Hotel’s address is 138 Victory Ship Way and is located at the foot of Lonsdale. The easiest way to access the building for drop off / pick up is to head east on Esplanade east of Lonsdale and take the first right turn. We will enter the building from the south side, through the front doors to the hotel. The coaches will meet the swimmers just inside the entry to the building and take the elevator up to the 3 rdfloor as a group. Swimmers are not permitted to be anywhere else in the building.

We are extremely lucky to have this facility available to us as it takes a lot of stress off of our scheduling difficulties we have had in the past in May and June, and as such, as a club we all need to make an effort to make a positive impression on hotel and Rec Commission staff to ensure that this facility is available to us in the future. Please make sure that when you are in the facility that all club members are respectful of staff, hotel guests and other patrons and respect all rules and requests made of us.

Please check your group’s schedule to confirm any time or pool changes that will be in place for May. If you have any questions please talk with your coach.
