APPLE VALLEY, Calif-– The Town of Apple Valley will reopen the Aquatic Center to the community on Saturday, June 27.

Social distancing measures will be in place for all programs offered.

“The pool has always been a popular destination and public amenity for our residents and swim teams,” said Mayor Scott Nassif. “I’m pleased we can finally reopen the pool just in time for summer!”

Programs offered include Morning Lap Swim, from 5:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. Monday-Friday and 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. on Saturdays.
