New Hope Aquatic Park ~ 4411 Xylon Ave N
Opening Delayed until 2021 season
Due to health and safety challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the city of New Hope is delaying the opening of its new aquatic facility until the 2021 season. Staff had remained hopeful that the COVID-19 situation would improve and the summer opening would be feasible. However, after exploring several scenarios with staff, the City Council came to the consensus that delaying the opening until the 2021 season would be in the best interest of the health and well-being of both pool visitors and staff. Several factors were considered, including the uncertainty of when and if aquatic facilities will be allowed to open, Centers for Disease Control and Minnesota Department of Health requirements, the inability to train lifeguards, and the budget.
Staff remains focused on completing this world-class facility, and we look forward to opening in 2021!
