Lewisboro Pool Patron Tests Positive For Coronavirus

LEWISBORO, NY — A patron swimming at the Lewisboro town pool tested positive for the new coronavirus. Dana Mayclim, superintendent of parks and recreation, said the person's last visit to the pool complex was late Sunday afternoon.

In a posting directed to the town's friends and neighbors on the Lewisboro website, Mayclim wrote that it was immediately reported to the Westchester County Health Department and the town has been in contact with the person.

It was confirmed the patron is working with county contact tracers.

Mayclim said, after consulting with the county health department, it was determined the pool does not need to be closed.

"In an overabundance of caution we conducted an additional deep cleaning of our entire pool facility," she said. "In addition to our efforts, we would like to thank our patrons' efforts in social distancing, staying in their pods and facial covering at the pool."

Mayclim said the town will continue to be diligent with cleaning and staff health checks, as well as staying vigilant with all best practices and guidelines.

Mount Pleasant's pool and community center and the Hommocks pool in Mamaroneck recently had coronavirus scares causing the closing of facilities.
