Reopening of pools and locker rooms at East Boulder Community Center postponed to Friday, Sept. 14, due to construction delays

Renovation of the locker rooms at the East Boulder Community Center (EBCC) has experienced some construction delays, postponing the reopening of the pools and the men’s and women’s locker rooms until Friday morning, Sept. 14.

The locker rooms at EBCC, 5660 Sioux Drive, are being completely remodeled, with replacement of all tiles in both the men's and women's locker rooms; replacement of all stalls; replacement of fixtures; replacement of counter tops and sinks; re-plastering of the leisure pool; repainting and finishing of the dinosaur slide; and repairs and replacement of all tiles in the steam room. 

Construction was expected to be completed by Monday, Sept. 3, allowing for a reopening of the pools, steam room, hot tub and locker rooms on Sept. 4.  A delay in receiving some construction materials initially postponed the reopening of the pools, hot tub, steam room and men’s and women’s locker rooms until Wednesday, Sept. 12, however, additional materials delays are now pushing the reopening back to Friday morning, Sept. 14.  The three remodeled family locker rooms will reopen later in September.

"We want to thank all of our East Center patrons for their patience during our locker room and pool renovations,” said Interim Recreation Center Manager Dean Rummel. “We are sorry to have to delay the reopening, but we know that our patrons will really appreciate the wonderful new locker rooms, steam room and pool improvements that are being made."
