Please join Boston Centers for Youth & Families and the City of Boston’s Public Facilities Department for an information session about upcoming renovations to the BCYF Paris Street Pool in East Boston on Wednesday, September 25, at 6 p.m.

The pool is expected to close for renovations in January 2020. The Walsh Administration's investment to the pool will include a new pool filter room, mechanical and electrical upgrades, modified main entrance and lobby area, building interior and exterior repairs, and other upgrades necessary to make it a more inviting and user-friendly space. The project is expected to take 14 months. 

The meeting will be held at BCYF Paris Street Community Center across the street from the pool, 112 Paris Street, East Boston.

This meet gives all BCYF swimmers the chance to end the swim season in healthy competition against other BCYF centers’ swim teams from across the City. This end of season meet gathers all the swimmers in one location to experience a swim meet at a college facility.

The league is made up of 14 teams from BCYF community centers. More than 300 children participate in the league, which starts in January and ends with this meet in March.  The league has been operating for more than 15 years.
