Oyster Bay Pools Hours Of Operation Extended For The Day

OYSTER BAY, NY — Hours of operations at all Oyster Bay town pools will be extended Monday, July 20, Town officials announced.

With high temperatures and humidity on today's forecast for the region, Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town Board have extended Town pools' opening hours from 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. at all locations for the day.

“Today’s forecast calls for extreme heat, and we invite our residents to enjoy some fun family time and make the Town pool facilities their backyards away from home,” Saladino said. “Our Town pools and beaches are a staycation destination for residents of all ages and that especially holds true this year. This summer, we’ve taken action to further ensure the health of our residents by implementing new safety protocols to ensure all who visit our facilities feel safe this summer.”

Pool admission is limited to Town residents, but non-residents are permitted to visit as guests alongside a resident. Residents are reminded to practice social distancing throughout the facility when encountering individuals outside their own household or family unit. Masks should not be worn in the water. Pool facilities once again offer complimentary sunscreen stations courtesy of a partnership between the Town and Northwell Health.

Town of Oyster Bay Pools are located at Plainview-Old Bethpage Community Park, Syosset-Woodbury Community Park, Bethpage Community Park, Marjorie R. Post Community Park in Massapequa and Tappen Pool in Glenwood Landing. For more information on Town pools, visit www.oysterbaytown.com/pools.
