Most fitness studio classes are included with your general admission. AquaFit classes in the pool require a $5.00 add-on fee. You can reserve a spot up to seven days in advance at 5:30 a.m. on the day of the program cycle. Walk-ins are welcome if space is available.
Public swimming and lane swim
Lane swim is available daily in the main pool during open swim times. The schedule changes weekly to accommodate lessons and programmed activities. Check the daily posted schedule at the front desk or online.
Public swim times fill up quickly on weekday evenings and Saturday mornings. If you prefer a quieter swim, visit mid-morning on weekdays.
