The pool is open to the community 7 days per week. Lifeguards are on duty at all times during open swim. No registration required, just drop in.

When you visit the pool for Open Swim, you will receive a wristband good for the entire day. Wristbands differentiate swimmers from non-swimmers and help our guards preserve Open Swim areas of the facility for open swimmers. A non-swimmer is someone accompanying a swimmer who doesn’t enter the water at any time. Even getting a toe wet requires a wristband because our lifeguards are then responsible for your water safety.

Adults are welcome to swim laps during Open Swim times without paying extra fees. Choose to play with your kids or swim laps—your time in the pool is covered by your Open Swim drop-in fee or summer pass, all day. You can also register to pay for Lap Swim on a monthly basis which automatically admits you to Open Swim.

Monday/Tuesday/Thursday:  12:00pm – 8:00pm
Wednesday/Friday:  12:00pm – 7:00pm
Saturday/Sunday:  10:00am – 6:00pm

Please help ensure a great experience for everyone. Before you send your young swimmers to the pool, be aware that we wish to maintain high standards for conduct with emphasis on safety. We encourage behavior that is respectful and mature, and our guards will enforce safety rules with regard to running on deck, roughhousing and courtesy. Read our pool rules.
