The City of Bellingham's Arne Hanna Aquatic Center is popular and well-used. It requires regular maintenance to ensure its facilities remain safe and functional for all users. This year, the aquatic center will be closed for cleaning and maintenance beginning Monday, Aug. 7 through Sunday, Aug. 27.
Because of the closure, swim passes will be extended. The Aquatic Center's front desk, at 1114 Potter St. in Bellingham, will be staffed 8 a.m. to noon and 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Among the list of maintenance, repair and cleaning projects at the Arne Hanna Aquatic Center:
- Deep clean pools and facility;
- Replace sodium lights with LED bulbs;
- Rebuild pool filter backwash valves;
- Make safety improvements on main drain covers; and
- Replace portions of the electrical and chemical feed systems.
