Pool Update
As of today, January 17, the main 25-metre tank at Beban Park Pool is open. There have been several improvements including new tiling in the washrooms, LED lighting upgrades, water-efficient taps and overall painting found throughout the facility. In addition, an accessibility audit was completed last year that should help the City of Nanaimo determine ways to enhance everyone's ability to access the pool amenities found at Beban Park.
For those who haven't visited Beban Park Pool in awhile, Eliot White-Hill, Kwulasultun, a Coast Salish artist, was commissioned to create large-scale murals that were unveiled last fall. These feature the movement of the dog salmon run and the ecosystems sustained by the herring run and the eelgrass. Creatures, including littleneck clams, sea lion, bald eagle, octopus and others, appear in his designs. Interactive and interpretive signage with English and Hul’q’umi’num words and a take-away guide is available to share information, language and stories related to the artwork.
Just a reminder, the City is following current Provincial Health Orders and operating at 50% capacity. The 3-7 pm time slot at the Nanaimo Aquatic Centre fills up quickly. If you are able to come in the morning or evening sessions there is less of a chance of being turned away due to capacity levels. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
