In November 2023, the Board approved a major renovation for the pool to begin after the 2024 summer season. The pool renovation project included replacing the failing retaining wall that is adjacent to the creek behind the pool. This project also included renovations to the pool itself which are routine items that need to be done every 20 years or so with concrete pools. Pool Professionals of Raleigh was awarded the business for the project and it was completed shortly before the 2025 pool season.
