Weather Safety Information

The City of Haines City has a weather monitoring system at multiple facilities, including the Lake Eva Aquatic Center and the Janet J. Smith Aquatic Facility. These systems detect lightning strikes within a certain radius of each facility. If the Earth Networks lightning detection alarm goes off during your visit, the pool deck must be cleared. Guests should seek shelter and return to their cars. The wait period is 30 minutes from the last lightning strike detected within range, at which point an all-clear horn will sound and we will return to normal operation. We do not issue refunds for any reason, including inclement weather.

Check the status of the Janet J. Smith Aquatic Facility Earth Networks Lightning detection alarm.
