Updates & Information
Neighbors,
After speaking with the Newton County Health Department, legal counsel and others regarding the latest Executive Order issued by Governor Kemp, and after reviewing the CDC Guidelines for pools, the Board made the decision to postpone opening of the pool until the guidelines for pool opening are clear.
We are working diligently to open the pool as soon as possible and will keep everyone informed as we work through this process.
