Consistent with government and health department guidance, HHCA is implementing numerous measures to decrease the risk of exposure to COVID-19 at the pool. Individuals who are particularly at risk due to their age or health are encouraged to carefully consider their individual situation and error on the side of caution in deciding whether and how to use the pool this summer.
