The Annehurst Times (Online Edition)

Annehurst Pool hours are 12-8 pm every day this Summer season. See you in the water!

The grand opening of the Annehurst Pool will be delayed until Saturday, June 5. We are as disappointed as you are. Much has been done to get the pool facility back to working order after being closed for so long.

The problem is that the main pumps are locked up from sitting. Every effort has been taken to get things working and functional but the needed pump parts will not be available until this upcoming Thursday, June 3rd. We ask for your understanding and we plan to make this lost time up to you by staying open an extra weekend in September.

The Annehurst Pool will be open (no swimming) this Memorial Day from 12-noon until 3:00PM. You are invited to come up and meet the new Pool Manager, see the progress that has been made and ask any questions that you may have.

Our Best Regards,
AVRA Board
Annehurst Pool Staff

Due to predicted cooler weather this weekend and a likely chance of it being 60°F or below, Annehurst Pool has been rescheduled to open this upcoming Monday, May 31st (weather permitting). Thank you for your understanding, as we look forward to opening Annehurst Pool in just a few more days once warmer weather rolls in.

Summer is upon us! Let’s get ready to swim! Annehurst Pool is scheduled to open this Saturday (05/29/2021) with a soft opening and we’re excited to start our 2021 Summer Season!

Our main pool’s preparation for opening has been completed and our baby pool is still under construction; scheduled to open this Summer Season however with a slight delay. Until our baby pool opens, there will be temporary fencing put up around that area with appropriate safety signage.

Please stay tuned for more updates online on our website as time progresses.

Annehurst Pool – 2021 COVID Protocol

Welcome to the 2021 AVRA Pool season.  We are glad to be back and look forward to a FUN & SAFE season.  If we all follow our guidelines for being safe, our Summer will be successful.  Our goal is to open and STAY OPEN.  It’s been determined that there’s NO RESERVATIONS NEEDED for pool visits this Summer based on the property’s square footage and capacity guidelines that need to be followed related to COVID.

• MASKS:  Masks are required to enter the property.  Masks MUST be worn while entering/exiting the property and while using the bathrooms, going to/from the snack bar and any other common areas.

• “BUBBLE AREAS”:  Each member may create their own “bubble area” in the grassy areas.  You determine who may or may not enter your bubble and whether masks must be worn. To help ensure social distancing, grid lines will be marked on the lawn.

• Seating at tables/chairs in the common (concrete areas) is LIMITED and you are asked to keep your time at one of these tables to a minimum.

• Lounge chairs are provided and will be sanitized upon your departure. Due to a reduced number of lounge chairs, the lounge chairs will be limited to use by adults 18 and over.

• SNACK BAR:  Please limit your time at the snack bar.  “Social Distancing” is to be practiced.  Ask your children to not loiter at the snack bar.  All snack items will be individually packaged. 

You are encouraged to bring your own trash bags and to take your trash and recycles with you when you leave.  We will follow Ohio DOH, CDC and local guidelines for safety.  If we all work together, we will ALL be safe, well and have fun.
