During lap swim , please swim in lane appropriate for your speed and ability. Slow, medium, fast. And don't stand in the middle of the lane when you're resting. Stand to the side!
I really love it here.... Just wish there were more lounge chairs!
Nothing but a towel , sunblock, and a bound book allowed on deck. Lockers are small and only secure as your lock. Leave the cell phones and valuables at home
You’re not aloud to bring anything with you!! I showed up with a bag that had my towel , sunscreen , a book and my phone and they wouldn’t let me in. No phones aloud. I’m sorry it’s 2018!!
Great for a free outdoor pool in the city
Session one 11-3...if u come at one they won't let you in until the second session which is from 4 -7..saturday at least
Lap swim on weeksays from 7 to 8:30 am and pm. Bring a lock.
Please wear swim caps if your hair is long.
Wear flipflops in locker room . Trust me.
The locker room floor is nasty...really nasty.
