Pool News + Swim Lessons

Are you feeling HOT HOT HOT? Then come on down to our pools and cool off as our temps continue to climb! We have indoor & outdoor lap swim options plus an interactive pool with slides and fountains for fun with the kids. 

It’s never too late to learn the lifesaving skill of swimming and water safety. Whether you want to enroll your child in lessons to become more confident in the water, or if you never learned to swim yourself and want to learn as an adult, the Y has a swimming program to help you! Registration is open now for swim lessons.

Swim team begins in the fall, and registration is open now.

Facility Update

Policy Update: Safety Breaks

We will now be implementing 10-minute safety breaks every hour on the 0:50 minute mark. This will give lifeguards the chance to check pool chemicals and parents the opportunity to take children to the restroom, reapply sunscreen, or have a snack. Speaking of snacks, we are now allowing food on the outdoor pool deck! Please be sure to use the trash bins to keep the ants away and our pool deck tidy. 

Gymnasium Resurfacing Update

Improvements to the gym floor are almost complete. Peek through the doors and check out our 6 new beautiful pickleball courts! Thank you for your patience while we put the finishing touches on our fabulous new floor.
