Open and lap swim

Lap swim is a scheduled time when you can use the pool to swim or walk the pool in a continuous pattern—sometimes in designated lanes that might be shared with others. During lap swim, regular safety breaks are scheduled.

Open swim is a designated time when the pool, or a section of the pool can be used for recreational swimming or family time.

Before enjoying the pools and water features in the aquatic center, please review our swim test policy and pool guidelines.
