Exeter Aquatic Center Guidelines

Exeter Aquatic Center Guideline

This information is the guideline and regulations to be followed in order to allow the Exeter Aquatic Center to safely open during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the restrictions placed upon our communities being lightened, the Exeter Village Board has unanimously approved to open the community swimming pool if the following restrictions are followed and abided by. These guidelines and restrictions are based upon the combination of the DHM, CDC, local health district and the guidance from the League of Nebraska Municipalities. Although the Village of Exeter has accepted the responsibility of opening the swimming pool, patrons need to be aware of the fact that contracting the virus is still possible, so although preventable measures are being put in place, the risk and responsibility to prevent the chances of contracting the virus is not placed on the Village of Exeter and all swimming pool attendees will enter the facility at their own risk.

o   Session one – 1:30pm – 5:00pm
