Swimming Schedule and Rates

Registration is recommended for recreation swims and will open 1 week prior, on the Sunday at 8:30 am. Unclaimed reservations, even if pre-paid will be offered to walk-ins after the first 10 minutes of the activity start time. Walk-in participation will only be permitted if space allows.

The Vollmer Centre offers options including a lift for the spa, ramp into the main pool, water wheelchairs and slings. Washroom lifts, handicap stalls, and an adult change table with lift and privacy curtain are located in our change rooms.

The Culture and Recreation Department requires that high-risk participants (those with serious medical conditions such as seizures, frequent fainting or those with uncontrolled behaviours or impulses) be in the water with an individual informed of the condition and responsible for them. It is also a good idea for those with seizure conditions to wear a lifejacket or a Personal Floatation Device (PFD) at all times while in the pool. PFD's are available free of charge.

The Vollmer Centre pool will be closed during the month of September for regular maintenance and cleaning of the pool, hot tub, and sauna.

This yearly maintenance is essential to ensure effective operations of all pool features and components for the public to enjoy. The closure dates will be posted on the Cancellation and Closures Newsfeed
