- Lanes are divided into Fast, Medium and Slow speeds. Please swim in the lane most appropriate to your speed. Swimmers may be asked by a Lifeguard to change lanes during higher usage times.
- Two people sharing a lane may split the lane, each swimmer staying on one side of the center line.
- When a third person enters a lane, it is the responsibility of the swimmer entering the pool to get the other two swimmers’ attention to circle swim.
- Swimmers can share a lane by circle swimming with swimmers staying to the right and swimming in a counter clockwise circular pattern.
- The maximum lap swimmers allowed per lane is 5 except during a scheduled coached workout.
- If a swimmer is following closely behind you, stop at the wall and let them pass. If a swimmer is unaware that you are trying to pass, tap them gently on the foot and pass when you reach the wall.
- Participants must be able to swim a full length to use lanes designated for lap swim. Please stop only at lane ends.
- Some lanes may be closed for programs. Please see the schedule for details.
