Read the full update

As we count down to our upcoming pool renovation, you may notice some early activity around the pool deck over the next week.

Starting today, crews will begin preliminary tile demolition work on the deck area. All pool facilities—including the pool, hot tub, and deck—will remain fully open and accessible through Sunday, September 6th. While the pool remains open for your enjoyment, please pardon our dust and noise while this prep work is underway. We are taking extra care to keep the active work zones contained so you can continue your swimming routines safely until the official closure date.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we lay the groundwork for these exciting improvements. As a reminder, the full pool area closure will begin on Monday, September 7th. The work is scheduled for September 7th–October 16th. These dates are tentative. The pool & spa area will be fully closed during the renovation. Our members are invited to use the Eureka pool & spa during this time. If you have any questions, feel free to call the club or speak with a team member.

We can't wait to welcome you back to the newly renovated pool! — Maddy Taylor, Arcata Site Manager
