of outdoor events at a Lake Julian picnic shelter. These

groups. Two large picnic shelters can accommodate approximately
75 people and three small picnic shelters can each seat
approximately 25 - 35 people. Please call 684-0376 or email parks@buncombecounty.org.
Buncombe County Sports Park

fields, a walking trail, volleyball court, playground,
concession stand and restrooms. Shelter rental is $50 per

Q: Why do most of the outdoor
pools close in early August when it is still so hot outside?
We lose the majority of our lifeguards since schools in Buncombe
County usually begins in early to mid August (as well as most
universities and colleges). We would really like to keep all
six outdoor pools open because of the weather. However, we
do try to keep one to two pools open on Saturdays and Sundays
through the month of August. Again, this depends on the number
of lifeguards available once school begins.
