Pool closed Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 12-13, due to storm debris, poor water quality


Due to Tuesday's damaging severe weather, the Pool will be closed Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 12-13, so our team can continue cleanup and prepare for reopening on Friday -- weather permitting.

But there are no promises on that. Here's why:

Tuesday's heavy rain and wind dumped a lot of storm debris and related contaminants into the water. That, combined with our already aging and strained filtration system, threw off our chemical balance, compromising water quality and clarity.

As you know, our pool is one of the largest privately owned facilities on the Northeastside, so it takes time to get things squared away. We want to ensure things are in good order before opening, too, so even if the sun peeks out Wednesday or Thursday, we need to wait for our chemicals to circulate and level up.

Watch our Facebook page for the official reopening time. 

Thanks go out to Pool Facility Manager Ken Burns and our lifeguard staff for their cleanup efforts Tuesday and standing by for an expected second round on Wednesday. (Next time you see Ken, be sure to thank him for working to keep our facility open every day since Memorial Day!)

Good news is, we will reopen, unlike some of our area public pools. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Board May update: Pool opening, pool fobs, dues update, Board election, tennis court repairs, neighborhood garage sale

Image
Memorial Day is the traditional unofficial start of summer — and that means a lot of upcoming activities in Eagle Nest! A quick rundown of what to expect: Pool opening: The good news? The Pool will be open daily noon to 8 p.m., starting Memorial Day, Monday, May 25. Popsicles and adult beverages will be available for kids and adults, respectively, that first day. P lease familiarize yourself with our  Pool rules here . Questions? Contact new Co-Pool Managers Ken Burns (daily operations and facility maintenance) or Andrew Taylor (administration and Pool fobs).  The bad news? Our heater is on the fritz, so the water will be chilly. Our team is seeking bids for a replacement unit, but it may take several weeks before we figure out next steps. Pray for warmer weather soon! Pool fobs: All residents must have an active pool fob to access the Pool. If you still have your fob from last year and your dues are paid (and cleared our bank), your fob should work on Monday. After that, ...

Eagle Nest Board update for April 2026: dues, streetlights, potholes, suspicious vehicles, upcoming events and more

Image
Now that spring has sprung in Eagle Nest, summer isn’t far behind – barely two months away! With that, the Board has a few updates and event announcements to pass along: Package delivery alert: Suspicious vehicles trolling streets If you order from Amazon or other delivery sites, take note: Residents along Warbler Way recently reported suspicious vehicles (shown) driving slowly along the street, possibly looking for packages. One vehicle even tailed a U.S. Postal Service truck for blocks as it made its deliveries one day. If you expect a package to be delivered while you are away or at work, the Board suggests you ask a neighbor to grab the package for you or time your deliveries for when you are home. As always, if you see something suspicious, call 911. 200 books dumped at Clubhouse The Board appreciates donations to our Free Little Library, but at the risk of sounding ungrateful we don’t need 200 books (shown at right). On April 6, that’s what an anonymous donor dumped on our Clubho...
