Public Swim


Cooling off at the pool is a great way to beat the Southern California heat! 

 
Public swim is a time set aside for recreational swimming for swimmers of all ages to enjoy.  We offer public swim at two of our pool locations, the CRC and CHS, but they are not always open at the same time and times do vary depending on the day so please pay close attention to the schedule.  Before coming to the pool, we ask that you look over the pool rules which can be found below.

Pool Rules


We have pool rules that we ask every swimmer to follow for their own safety and the safety of others. If a swimmer cannot follow our rules they may be asked to leave.

Please look over the pool rules before coming to the pool and discuss them with any swimmers who may be accompanying you.
