2021 Aquatics Season

Adult Pre-Season Lap Swim at Witter: May 10 - June 18, Monday – Friday, 11:00 am – 2:30 pm

Regular Aquatics Season (lap swim, swim lessons, swim team): June 21 – August 27

Open Swim: July 5 – August 27, Monday - Saturday

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Following all state-mandated guidelines, the Aquatics season will look different than we are all accustomed to, however, we are excited to open pools this summer with equitable access as our priority.

The biggest changes this year: free open swim will be in 1-hour block sessions, and registration will be required. Having 1-hour sessions will ensure we can rotate visitors through and give everyone a chance to swim. Reservations will help us manage occupancy. Phases 2 and 3 mean different occupancy levels.

One-Hour Open Swim Sessions

Our occupancies are reduced this year under COVID guidelines. To help ensure everyone gets a chance to enjoy free open swimming, we’re operating in 1-hour sessions. Reservations are required in advance, details below. These changes are mandated by the state.

Reservations Required

Due to COVID-19, Spokane Parks & Recreation aquatic centers are operating with new safety restrictions. To promote distancing and manage occupancy, advanced reservations are now required under state guidelines. Reservations will be available on Mondays for the following week (ex: reservations open July 5 for the week of July 12).

Reservation Process

• Please make reservations online at SpokaneRec.org under the Aquatics tab. Reservations can also be made over the phone at 509-755-2489 during regular business hours. Please note, voicemail and email reservation requests will not be accepted.

• Each individual must be registered (including babies/infants), so we can monitor capacity numbers as required by the state. Anyone not registered will not be admitted into the pool area, whether swimming or not.

• Reservations can be made for household members only.
