The Community and Recreation Center at Boyce Mayview Park is taking a summer break.

The Upper St. Clair facility will be closed from Sunday through Friday, Aug. 16-21, for maintenance.

The exception is the outdoor pool, which will remain open each day from 8 to 10:45 a.m. for adult programs and lap swims, and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. for swimmers in general.

For those who wonder what takes place during the closure, here is a list of items to be addressed:

• Drain and acid wash the indoor lap pool, leisure pool and spa, and repair plaster as needed

• Apply new concrete stain around the perimeter of the lap and leisure pools

• Clean and wax indoor play structure and slides

• Disassemble and clean all pool equipment, including chlorinators, acid feeders, diatomaceous earth filters and ultraviolet light sanitation systems

• Inspect and grease all circulating and feature pumps

• Inspect and clean all boilers and heat exchangers, and change air filters

• New floor finish for the gymnasium and Exercise Room 2

• Paint walls throughout the facility

• Strip and refinish all vinyl composition tile floors

• Machine scrub all ceramic tile and carpet
