ALERT: Due to excessive heat, DPR has implemented ALL OUT Safety Breaks at ALL outdoor pools. 
The DC Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) would like to share with the community that due to the excessive heat, DPR has implemented ALL OUT Safety Breaks at ALL outdoor pools.
Safety Breaks occur on the (45) of every hour for 15 minutes.
At that time, ALL guests (including adults) must exit the pool.
This requirement lowers the risk of the spread of germs and recreational water illnesses. Additionally, pool goers and staff can hydrate, use restrooms, reapply sunscreen, and seek shade.
This posture will continue as the weather dictates and includes through Sunday while the District has activated the Hot Weather Emergency.
Please feel free to contact our Customer Care Center at (202) 673-7647 or send them an email at [email protected] if you have any additional questions.
