Garden City Pool To Be Cheaper For Residents This Year

In response to residents' concerns about the price of pool membership, the Village of Garden City announced that it would be reducing prices for all memberships by 18 percent this year.

While residents love the pool, responses to online surveys and questionnaires shows that the cost of membership is a concern for many residents. In response, the Board of Commissioners of Cultural and Recreational Affairs,in collaboration with the Department of Recreation and Parks, announced the price reduction.

The pool will also be opened beyond Labor Day this year. Members can also continue to enjoy the indoor, air-conditioned dining area and the addition of more tables, chairs and lounges on the pool deck.

Two Party Under the Stars nights with a poolside barbecue and live music are planned, as well as weekly movie nights and the mini golf membership – which can be added to your membership anytime during the season.

Mark your calendar for new events this season, including Fun and Games Night on July 27, Halloween Night on July 30 and Epic 80s Day on Aug. 24.

If you have not been a member in the past, please consider previewing the facility at one of the
Open House Days on Sunday, June 9 or Sunday, June 16. Residents can expect the 2019 Pool
newsletter, "Splash," in the upcoming days. Visit www.gardencityrecreation.org for category details and online registration.
