We’re back with another renovation update!

09/14/2026

FYI: The Outdoor Lap Pool will be closed to the public for the next two weeks (September 14 - 27).

With active construction taking place near the pool, we cannot safely maintain public access to the area during this phase of the project. The safety of our guests and staff is our priority, and we do not want to allow public access when conditions may present a potential safety risk. Kingsport Aquatic Center plans to reopen the Outdoor Lap Pool on Monday, September 28, pending construction progress and confirmation that the area is safe for public use.

The Masters Swim Team will be utilizing the pool from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. during these two weeks, as daily work will not begin until 7 a.m. All dates and access are subject to change as we receive updates from the construction crew.

Thank you for your understanding!
