Healthy Delaware will provide no-cost medical and veterinary services for the public. There are no prerequisites to participate. Military personnel will offer Delaware County residents health exams, youth sports physicals, behavioral health screenings, eye exams, eyeglass prescriptions, dental exams, cleanings, and extractions. For domestic pets, veterinarians will be available to provide wellness checks, rabies shots, and spaying and neutering.

Pool
Unfortunately, due to the lack in staffing, the Town of Delhi is unable to provide swimming lessons as planned. We kept hoping to have some applicants, but Delhi, like other communities, is experiencing a shortage of lifeguards. We will be continuing to do everything possible to attract qualified Lifeguards so that we can open the swimming pool this summer. We remain hopeful and optimistic! If there are any questions or concerns, please reach out to the Recreation Director, Kali Barnhart (recdirector@townofdelhi.org).
