Summer Pool Schedule Update
August 18, 2023 2 Comments

As the summer season winds down, we want to ensure you have every opportunity to make the most of these warm days. McKoy Pool will be closing its doors for maintenance after regular hours on Sunday, August 20.
However, the aquatic fun continues at Ebster Pool, which will remain open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 6 pm until September 4th.
Meanwhile, Glenlake Pool will be your weekday haven, open Monday to Friday from 10 am to 8 pm until September 4th. And the fun doesn’t stop there – mark your calendars for September 9th and 10th when Glenlake Pool will finish up the season from 10 am to 6 pm.
As we bid farewell to another summer, take the opportunity to enjoy the refreshing waters, bask in the sun’s warm embrace, and savor the sense of community that our pools offer. These spaces have been a source of relaxation, exercise, and shared moments, and we’re here to ensure you have the chance to create lasting memories until the very end of the season. So, gather your loved ones, pack your towels, and join us as we embrace the final lap of summer at Decatur’s pools.
Why did you close McKoy pool? There doesn’t appear to be any “maintenance” happening. With this hot weather, it really should be open weekends through Labor Day, as planned. By the way, the pool section of your website still has the regular schedule posted, as does the sign on the McKoy pool door.
Thank you for reaching out and expressing your concern. We understand your frustration regarding the closure of McKoy pool. Unfortunately, the pool is currently facing underground plumbing issues that necessitate its closure for the season on August 21. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
While McKoy pool is closed, we have Ebster and Glenlake pools up and running. Ebster pool will remain open on weekends until September 4th, and you can enjoy Glenlake pool until September 10th.
We appreciate your patience as we work to update our website with the most accurate information. Please note that our website is currently undergoing regular updates as part of our ongoing transition after the creation of our new department.
