    Englewood Recreation Center visitors, get ready for a major upgrade! As part of the city's ongoing Renew & Recreate improvements, the Englewood Recreation Center pool and locker rooms are getting a makeover starting Monday, August 31.

    To make these changes happen, we have some important service updates to share:

    • August 31, 2026: Annual Maintenance Week begins. The Englewood Recreation Center is closed.
    • September 8 – Summer 2027: The Englewood Recreation Center reopens, but the pool and locker rooms remain closed during construction.
    • Summer 2027: Grand reopening and project completion.

    Stay Active with "Dry Aqua" Classes!

    We know how much you love your pool routine and our world-famous instructor, Judy! To keep our community active and connected, Judy will be hosting Dry Aqua classes Tuesday through Friday in the gym at the same time, with the same great social vibe, just on dry land! Registration opens August 11 for residents and August 13 for non-residents. Register for Dry Aqua Classes here.

    Track Adjustments

    Due to structural work on the west side of the building, a portion of the indoor track will temporarily close for a period of time. A dedicated "horseshoe" loop will be created so you can still log your miles safely inside.

    Alternative Changing Spaces

    While the locker rooms are transformed, racquetball courts 3 and 4 will be converted into private, alternative dry changing spaces (separated for men and women).

    Due to unforeseen costs, pickleball courts at the Englewood Recreation Center (ERC) will no longer be part of the Renew & Recreate project. These funds will be redistributed to installing an updated elevator in the facility, adding a cold plunge to the new hot tub/spa area and updating the floor tile in the main hallway. Redistributing funds did not come lightly, but the decision was made with our residents in mind. Creating a welcoming environment for all is the top priority.

    While it might be disappointing to see the ERC pickleball courts removed, there are new pickleball courts being installed at Belleview Park. The ERC courts would have required an Englewood Recreation membership to be utilized, while the courts on the west side of Belleview Park will be free to use. Also, there are free courts at Colorado's Finest High School of Choice at 300 W. Chenango Avenue that Englewood residents can utilize for free as well.
