The City of Caldwell is proud to announce that significant progress has been made on the pool. The mechanical building is finally complete! After months of careful planning and construction, the backbone of the pool facility is ready to serve its purpose. Workers moved swiftly over the past few weeks to finalize the internal systems, ensuring that everything from the filtration pumps to the heating elements are in place and functioning perfectly. The air around the site buzzes with excitement as the finishing touches are applied.
By mid-April, plastering of the pool will begin, a key milestone that signals the project is nearing its grand opening. The pool's deep end is already transforming. The slide has been installed, tall and winding, waiting for the first thrill-seekers to ride down. The diving blocks are securely in place, positioned perfectly for anyone looking to dive into the cool, clear water. And perhaps the most exciting addition: the AquaZip’n, a modern take on the traditional water zip line, stretching across the deep end. Soon enough, it’ll be the go-to feature for those looking for a little more adventure in their swim.
Meanwhile, the bathhouse is coming along smoothly. Construction is progressing well, with the framework nearly completed. By May, everything should be in place for the finishing touches: changing rooms, spacious showers, and everything needed to make poolside moments comfortable and convenient.
To ensure the pool operates smoothly and safely once it opens, the team will be hiring for several important positions. Available roles will include shift managers, lifeguards, and swim instructors. These positions will be crucial in providing top-notch service and ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience. If you’re passionate about swimming, safety, or teaching, this is the perfect opportunity to be a part of something exciting and new for the community. Jobs will be posted in the coming weeks here: Career Opportunities | City of Caldwell, Idaho.
Opening date is set for early summer, ideally in time for Memorial Weekend. We’ll have a clearer picture of the exact opening date by early May.
And in May, the excitement will ramp up even further. Registration for swim lessons will open, and soon after, reservations for private pool rentals will be available. People are already eagerly awaiting the chance to book the pool for their own special events, whether it's a birthday party, a family gathering, or just a private swim.
The countdown has begun. The community can almost taste the summer fun that awaits. With each passing day, the pool becomes more than just a project—it’s becoming a dream come true for everyone who’s been waiting for this moment. The anticipation grows, and the summer fun is just around the corner.
