SWIM FOR SHAPE! Looking for that extra motivation to get in shape? The Swim for Shape fitness program will give you the final nudge to get you over the top. Participants in this program will receive a mileage log that will be kept on file. Participants will strive for a set goal each month and track their swimming mileage. For those that attain their individual goal, great rewards await!

Our lap lanes are always open during pool hours. During the evening water fitness classes (5:30PM-6:15PM) only three lap lanes will be open.
