STATE PARKS ADJUST POOL SCHEDULE FOR END OF SUMMER

supervision at pools through the end of the summer season.

 

The end-of-summer schedules for State Park pools are:

The pool will continue its normal schedule through Labor Day weekend and
will be open on Labor Day. Visitors should note that the daily capacity of
the wave pool will depend on the number of lifeguards on duty.

 

 

Chemin-A-Haut (Bastrop)

The pool remains closed due to construction.

 

 

Chicot (Ville Platte) and
Lake D'Arbonne (Farmerville)

The pool will continue its normal schedule through Aug. 14, after which the
pool will be open only on weekends and on Labor Day.

 

 

Lake Bistineau (Doyline) and St. Bernard (Braithwaite)

The pool will continue its normal schedule until Aug. 14, after which the
pool will be closed for the rest of the year.

 

 

North Toledo Bend (Zwolle)

The pool will continue its normal schedule through Aug. 7, then open on
weekends only and on Labor Day.
