Two of Canada's largest outdoor pools opening for the season in Brantford and Dunnville
Swimming fans may want to head to Brantford or Dunnville this summer to enjoy two of Canada's largest outdoor swimming pools.
According to the release on Thursday from the Grand River Conservation Authority, they will be opening the pools in the Brant Conservation Area and the Byng Island Conservation Area on June 14.
'A low slope entry, all the way around the pool, means that there is plenty of water frontage for people of all ages to enjoy,' Pam Walther-Mabee, the conservation authority's Director of Conservation Area Operations, said. 'The large pools and expansive Byng Island and Brant Conservation Areas allow us to accommodate many guests comfortably.'
Up to 1,000 people at a time can enjoy the two-acre pool at Byng Conservation Area. Meanwhile, the pool in Brantford measures 1.25 acres. Both sites also offer splashpads for younger children or others who don't want to take the plunge.
