Mark your calendars!

May 30th is the TENTATIVE opening date for the season. This, of course, depends on the weather over the next few weeks. We need some warm, sunny days in order to get the pool washed and painted.

SWIMMING LESSONS are scheduled for the weeks of July 6 and 13. Students are required to attend both weeks. Cost is the same as last year - $40/student for season pass holders and $45/student for non-season pass holders. More information will be posted in the upcoming weeks.

Family passes for the season will be available at the cost of $225 through the end of Old Home Week. After that, the cost will be $250. We'll be announcing a few more opportunities to purchase passes in the upcoming weeks so everyone can take advantage of the discounted rate.

WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF LIFEGUARDS! If you are interested in being a guard for the summer, reach out as soon as possible. You don't need to be a teenager to apply - we'd HAPPILY welcome adults. Are you a teacher looking to make some extra cash...are you working part time somewhere else and want a great outdoor job just for the summer...are you at the pool all summer with your kids? Send us a message for more info!
