Perkasie Borough and the Menlo Aquatics Center are required to follow PA State and Bucks County guidance regarding Covid-19 mitigation. We are awaiting statements about gathering limits, capacity restrictions and masking from the State and County Health Departments on May 31st, at which time we will be able to confirm these anticipated operating procedures for the Menlo Aquatic Center:
Broadly speaking, we expect to return to “pre-Covid, normal” operations:
• Regular facility capacity restrictions – no Covid related capacity or gathering restrictions
• No “family pods” or social distancing
• No pre-registration or time slots required
Please note the following:
• Tables and Chairs will be unavailable this year. Menlo’s tables and chairs are currently on loan to a number of the Borough’s restaurants as part of Council’s initiative to help them provide outdoor seating areas and manage their business through the pandemic.
• Loungers will be unavailable this year as we work to remove high touch, hard to clean touch surfaces.
• Sanitizer stations will be located at the facility.
We ask patrons to follow PA State and Bucks County Health Department masking guidelines in place at the time of your visit.
