Pender Harbour, Sechelt pools will get expanded hours 

A pair of pools operated by the Sunshine Coast Regional District will have extended hours starting this month. 

The Sechelt Aquatic Centre will be open for 8.5 additional hours each week starting April 12, bringing its total operating time to 74.5 hours weekly. 

“These changes reflect ongoing efforts to better meet community demand and enhance access to recreation services across the Sunshine Coast,” reads a news release from the Sunshine Coast Regional District. “While the expansion is modest, extended Friday evening hours will provide improved access for patrons.” 

The Sunshine Coast Regional District said expanded hours at the Pender Harbour Aquatic and Fitness Centre will be introduced in two phases. 

Updated schedules and operating hours are available on the regional district’s website.
