New River Aquatics

Frequently Asked Questions
The MCCS New River Indoor Pool is closed until further notice due to unforeseen mechanical issues. Currently we are experiencing problems with chlorine levels and maintaining a consistent water temperature. Both of these functions are controlled by mechanical processes, not the Aquatics staff. The faulty equipment is being replaced by the contractor as expeditiously as possible. We sincerely apologize for the sporadic pool closings, but this is a necessity for the safety of our customers and employees as we resolve these problems. Due to these intermittent issues, we recommend calling the pool at (910) 449-4307 for pool status before heading our way.
