Pool Closed In City of Martinez On August 20

Press release from the City of Martinez:

August 20, 2020

Lap swimming and water walking have been cancelled on Thursday, August 20th due to poor air quality as a result of several wildfires burning around the Bay Area. All participants scheduled during this time frame will receive a credit on their account. We apologize for any inconvenience this may bring. The safety of our participants and staff is our first priority.

Staff will continue to monitor the air quality daily for tomorrow and the remainder of the week. Once the air quality index returns to a safer level we will reopen the facility and an email notification will be sent to all participants. Check back for daily updates.

Please check www.airnow.gov for air quality updates. If you have any questions please contact the Recreation Office at recreation@cityofmartinez.org.
