It’s the news swimmers in Wallaceburg have been waiting for.

Public Health has given the green light to reopen the Sydenham Pool next Monday.

Programming will begin with lane swims, adult and senior, parent & tot and family swims, then followed by other programs when safety process and procedures have been fully tested.

The old program registration system has changed since the pool was last open, and users will have to re-register through the municipal website (Chatham-kent.ca/recreation) or by calling the Civic Centre (519-360-1998 or simply dial 3-1-1.)
