Indoor Pool Schedule

Current Indoor Pool Schedule

We now have an activity based blocked time schedule for lane and public swims, as well as AquaFit for the Aquatic Centre. The Aquatic drop-in opportunities have been redesigned into blocks of time where complementary activities will be combined into the same blocks and other type of activities will be scheduled at a different time to improve the quality of the customer experience.

Activity Based Schedule FAQ - why the change?

Supervision Requirements

Children 7 years of age and under must be actively supervised (in the water and within arm’s reach) by an individual 14 years of age or older. Maximum of 4 children to 1 supervisor.

Aquatic Centre Guidelines

Outdoor footwear and strollers are not permitted on deck or in the changerooms. Snug fitting swim diapers are required for all patrons who are not toilet-trained.

All swimmers who appear to be under the age of 16 will be required to complete a swim test on each visit and will receive a mark that will identify that they have successfully completed the test for that day.

Aquatic Centre FAQs

Why does a pool close unexpectedly?
Unfortunately, pools have to be closed in an untimely manner due to pool fouling. Health regulations require pools to be closed anywhere from 1 to 36 hours for the necessary disinfecting.

Why can't I wear my shoes in the changerooms or take my stroller out onto the pool deck?
For health and safety reasons outdoor footwear and strollers are not permitted on deck or in the changerooms. Shoe racks are provided at the changeroom entrance and the viewing area on deck. Strollers can be left in the "Stroller Parking Lot" and exchanged for 'pool' strollers, allowed on the deck and in the changerooms.

What time is public swimming?
Public swimming is offered at different times every day. Depending on the day and time, some or all pools may not be available due to swimming lessons and other aquatic programs. Refer to the Pool Schedule or speak with a Guest Services Representative to confirm times.

Do my kids need supervision  in the Aquatic Centre?

• 0 - 7 years of age: need supervision (Maximum of 4 children to 1 supervisor)
• 8 years of age and older: does not need to be accompanied

Can my teenager participate in aquatic fitness programs?
All drop-in and registered aquatic fitness program participants must be at least 14 years of age unless otherwise noted.

I forgot my towel / swim diaper / bathing suit!
The West Guest Services desk provides a tuck shop carrying your swimming needs (while supplies last). Goggles, nose clips, swim caps, swim diapers, towels and a limited stock of bathing suits can be purchased.  Baby boats are available for free on deck, please just see a Lifeguard.
