Ponoka Aquaplex to reopen on October 14

Oct 1, 2025 | 1:35 PM

The Ponoka Aquaplex is set to reopen after the Thanksgiving long weekend following scheduled facility improvements and annual maintenance.

Multiple major improvements will be completed over the coming days including the renovation and modernization of the change rooms, installation of a new water filtration system, and replacement of all filters.

There will also be a deep cleaning of the main pool, deep tank, hot tub, wading pool, sauna, and deck. They will also apply a fresh coat of paint throughout the facility.

“These improvements will extend the life of the Ponoka Aquaplex and allow us to welcome back pool users to a newly refurbished facility that citizens can enjoy for years to come,” said Andrew Jones, manager of parks, recreation and facilities.

The improvements are a part of the Town of Ponoka’s annual maintenance program at the Aquaplex, which has seen extensive renovations over the last five years of the program.
