EFFECTS ON SCHEDULE: Private swim teams, lap swimming and water walking will be adjusted to the schedule below. Both High School Seasons should only last for fourteen weeks. Toward the end of the season, we will provide another schedule update.
IMPORTANT! Please read the following guidelines and be aware of them before visiting the pool for your chosen activity.
NEW! UPDATED SCHEDULE: See schedule (effective Monday, March 8) at bottom of email. (Swim Lessons take effect March 2, 2021)
SHOWERING: Come ready to swim with your swimsuit on under your clothes. With showers closed, it is critical that everyone takes a cleansing shower before arriving at the pool. Showering before entering the pools helps ensure clean, clear and safe water conditions.
