The City of Yellowknife would like to advise residents that the Ruth Inch Memorial Pool will be closed for annual repairs and maintenance until October 3, 2023 at 9:00 a.m.
The Ruth Inch Memorial Pool would like to thank our safety sponsors for:
Canadian Red Cross's Water Safety Week (June 5-11, 2022) - Rio Tinto
Lifesaving Society's National Drowning Prevention Week (July 17-23, 2022) - Northland Utilities, De Beers Canada, Avery Cooper & Co, Diamond Glass, GAP Electric, and Corother's Home Hardware
With your help we had over 1500 people come to the pool free of charge for fun and a lesson in safety.
About the Pool
The Ruth Inch Memorial Pool is a bright, warm and welcoming place to exercise, learn (Red Cross and Lifesaving Society programs available), and play. The main pool beach access and hot tub lift allow accessibility for all abilities and ages. The steam room and whirlpool are the perfect place to relax after your workout or long day. The facility also has a large outdoor deck with a BBQ and picnic tables that overlooks Frame Lake, providing a premier rental opportunity for private functions!
We take great pride in our clean, safe building and our friendly and qualified staff. We want to ensure that you have the best possible experience while you visit. Help us keep a safe, fun and healthy environment for everyone by following the facility guidelines and respecting other visitors and our staff.
