KAMLOOPS — Plans are in the works to reshuffle operating hours at the Westsyde Pool and Fitness Centre.
In a report to Kamloops council for Tuesday’s (Oct. 27) regular meeting, the city’s community and culture department says staff will review operating hours to reallocate underutilized time to periods with higher demand, such as evenings and weekends.
“Staff will monitor facility usage to support these efforts. Staff will also align operating hours so the fitness centre and pool open at the same time,” Sherri Holmes, the city’s sport, recreation and wellness manager, writes.
Nearly 1,600 residents participated in a survey over the summer as the city re-evaluated the Westsyde Pool. According to the survey, demand was at its highest during weekday evenings (51.9 per cent), Saturday afternoons (44.9 per cent) and Sunday afternoons (41.1 per cent).
