Water fitness classes
Reservation only
- To reserve a spot in a water fitness class, please visit the Water Fitness Schedule page.
- All participants under 18 years old must be able to pass the green swim test.
- All participants under 10 years old must be accompanied by an adult over 18 years of age. This adult must remain on the pool deck area during the session.

Lap swimming
- All swimmers under the age of 18 must pass a swim test for a green ribbon.
- We are now allowing four (4) swimmers per lane.
- Lap lane swimming is on a first-come, first-served, basis.
- All lap swimmers under 10 years old must be accompanied by an adult over 18 years of age. This adult must remain on the pool deck.
- Swimmers will be required to circle swim.
- When joining other swimmers, wait on the side during one lap until all swimmers have noticed that you have joined the lane. If you are unable to verbally get the attention of a swimmer, please gently tap them on the foot.
- If you are resting, talking, or stretching, please do so that you are not obstructing the lane end for other lap swimmers.
- If needing to pass a swimmer, please attempt to notify other swimmers of your intent to pass; tapping a swimmer gently on the foot is a good way to get their attention.
- If passing mid-lap, pass on the left hand side. Slower swimmers should slow down and move over as far as possible. Please ensure no other swimmer is coming down the lane, as you are passing.
- If passing at the wall, the slower swimmers should move to the right corner and should not push off the wall until the pass has been completed.
Thank you for your cooperation and respect to your fellow members.
