Go Green
Menlo Swim and Sport urges you to go green and participate in our Pedal to the Pool promotion. Menlo Swim and Sport has teamed up Clif Bar to encourage our swimmers to leave your cars at home and ride your bikes to Burgess Pool. After you swim, just stop by the front desk and show your bike helmet to the front desk attendant and receive a tasty Clif product to refuel your body for your ride home.

Dome Delay
Due to many unforeseen issues, Menlo Swim and Sport has decided to temporarily halt and delay the construction of the dome. Since springtime is just around the corner, we have decided to push back the debut of the dome until the fall of 2008. The planned regular schedule for the dome will be from Halloween to Easter.

Community Open House
Menlo Swim and Sport will be having a community open house on Saturday, April 26th, 2008 starting at 1:00pm.
Find out about all our 2008 programs and spend a FREE day at the pool. We're opening the pool for the day so that the community can meet our instructors and coaches, see lesson and class demonstrations, and sign up for programs on site. Booths with program information start at 11:00am and demonstrations begin at 1:00pm. Open Swim, Lap Swimming and the Baby Pool will be free for the day, ending at 6:00pm.
