Aquatic center moves to weekend schedule through Labor Day

Abilene Parks and Recreation Board · August 18, 2026

Summary

Parks staff told the board the aquatic center has shifted to a weekend-only schedule (Saturdays 11 a.m.-7 p.m., Sundays 1 p.m.-7 p.m.) beginning Aug. 9, with Labor Day hours Sept. 7 from 1 p.m.-5 p.m.

Parks staff announced the Abilene Aquatic Center moved to a weekends-only schedule as of Aug. 9. Weekend hours are Saturdays 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays 1 p.m. to 7 p.m.; the last scheduled day of the season will be Labor Day (Monday, Sept. 7) with hours from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Leslie noted the schedule shift reflects the end of the summer programming window and the start of the school year. "We have gone to weekends only as of August 9," Leslie said, and reminded the board that seasonal schedule adjustments help staff allocate resources as attendance patterns change.

The board did not take formal action on the schedule change; staff will continue to operate the center under the weekend hours through Labor Day.
