Updated Guidance for John Vanderzicht Memorial Pool

On January 8th, Governor Inslee announced the Healthy Washington – Roadmap to Recovery Plan. As part of the Roadmap to Recovery Plan, we received updated guidance for Water Recreation Facilities this week. We are pleased to share with you the updated guidance will not pose changes to our current facility operations! 


We are working diligently to keep our facility safe and accessible for you – our valued patrons!


We need your help to ensure we are following two important parts of our reopening guidance:


1. Physical Distancing: 


Please ensure you are maintaining a six-foot minimum physical distance from patrons and employees in ALL areas of the facility. This includes the WATER, locker rooms, lobby, pool deck, and all communal areas. 


Lap Swimmers: If you are taking a break at the end of your lane, please ensure you are keeping a six-foot minimum of physical distance between you and other swimmers taking a break at the same time. 


Members of the same household may occupy the same lane and/or pool section as long as they can keep an appropriate physical distance from those outside their household. 



2. Face Coverings: 


Face coverings/masks to cover the nose and mouth are required at all times in the facility. This includes the locker rooms, lobby, pool deck, spa (hot tub), and any communal areas. 


• Face coverings/masks may be removed when swimming in the pool or training pool.  Masks or face shields must be worn during Water Volleyball. 

• Face coverings/masks must be put on immediately upon exiting the pool. 


• Patrons and staff must wear a face-covering/mask in an indoor environment, even if six-foot physical distancing is maintained, in situations including but not limited to:

o Lounging on the pool deck (or watching from the bleachers)

o Using the spa (hot tub)

o Lifeguarding on the pool deck


Our staff will be actively reminding patrons of these guidelines, as necessary. 


Thank you for doing your part to help keep our patrons, staff, and facility safe for your water recreation needs!

North Whidbey Pool, Park, and Recreation District’s Releases Audit Report

The Washington State Auditor’s Office met with the North Whidbey Pool, Park and Recreation District’s Board of Commissioners this month for an exit conference after conducting the District’s audit, which ranged from 2016-2019.  The Auditor’s Office did provide some recommended improvement areas for the District’s internal controls but overall had no significant findings.  The complete report, including the recommended improvement areas, can be found on our website under the Accountability Audit Report.  So far, the District has successfully implemented five out of the seven recommended improvements and already moving forward to completing the last two. Our goal at the District is to be transparent and posting this Audit Report is a step in that direction.  

For information or questions, please call the District at 360-675-7665
