It can be frustrating to lose access to a page that you have worked hard to build and maintain. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened to the West Burlington Pool page.
For some reason, the administrators of the original page were no longer able to access it.
However, the team at West Burlington was not deterred. They quickly created a new page to serve as the official online presence for the pool. The new page can be found at https://www.facebook.com/OfficialWBPool.
Despite the setback of losing access to the original page, the team at West Burlington is excited to have a fresh start with their new page. They are looking forward to using this platform to connect with pool-goers and share important information about hours of operation, events, and other updates.
If you were a follower of the old West Burlington Pool page, be sure to follow the new page to stay up-to-date on all of the latest happenings at the pool. And if you're new to the West Burlington Pool community, welcome! The team is excited to have you on board and can't wait to see you at the pool this summer.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
After a recent incident at the swimming pool, we need to make it very clear that the City of West Burlington will not tolerate disrespect or behavior that could lead to an unsafe environment for our patrons.

Parents, please read through the pool rules, so you are familiar with them and can discuss them with your children before they go to the pool. These rules have been put in place for the safety of our staff and our guests. The blatant disregard of the rules will not be allowed.

Anyone not following the rules will be asked to leave the pool immediately and may result in being barred from the pool for the remainder of the summer.
