Director of Leisure Services & Social Services Helen Rubino-Turco said Wednesday that the town will be able to keep one of its pools open for an additional week this summer.

“Although most West Hartford pools will close on Sunday, Aug. 19, Fernridge Pool will remain open for one additional week, from Monday, Aug. 20 through Saturday, Aug. 25, from noon-6 p.m.” Rubino-Turco said in an email.

Eisenhower Park and Kennedy Park pools will close for the season at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 20.

While the Beachland Park pool will be closed to humans as of 6 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 19, it will be open one more day – for canines only. Beachland Park will be the host site for the 10th annual West Hartford Dog Park Coalition Pooch Plunge, on Monday, Aug. 20.

The splash pads at all pools will remain open daily through Labor Day, from 10 a.m.-7 p.m., free of charge.
