Henderson Harbor Summer 2026 Closure

Henderson Harbor will be closed for the summer 2026 season due to necessary repairs required to ensure the safe operation of the facility. 

To help accommodate this closure, hours at Sadie Thomas Pool have been expanded for the season.

Operating hours will be Monday – Friday from noon – 5 p.m., and Saturday – Sunday from 1 – 7 p.m., an increase of 25 open hours per week.

Planned work at Henderson Harbor includes repairs to underground piping and cracks in the foundation, as well as replacement of the pool’s filtration system. Repairs are estimated to be completed by mid-August.

We understand Henderson Harbor is a valued part of summer for many families, and we appreciate the community’s patience and understanding as these essential repairs and improvements are completed.

In addition to Sadie Thomas Pool and the Bryan Aquatic Center, residents also have free access to city splash pads throughout the summer season.
