Emerald Hills Leisure Centre's annual maintenance closure is from March 17 through July 3, 2026. The closure is extended to address work that could not be completed during the 2025 closure.
Active Pass and Active Pass+ memberships continue to offer excellent value, and pass holders can access activities at all other recreation facilities during the closure.
Memberships can be cancelled at any time by visiting a recreation facility or by emailing recreation@strathcona.ca. Please note that automatic withdrawals happen on the 15th day of each month. If you wish to cancel, it's best to plan to process or request your cancellation prior to the 10th day of the month so you won't be charged on the upcoming payment run.
Emerald Hills Leisure Centre was closed from March 18 to September 2, 2025. The aquatic shutdown was determined based on the exploratory work completed during the 2024 annual maintenance closure. The shutdown worked to address issues related to the pool basins, along with other items needing repair or replacement.
