Important Pool & Facility Information

Notice level: High
Updated:

Our new Aquatic Centre is now open for swimming. Please head through the parking lot over to the pool reception desk in the new Aquatic Centre. To access arena or studio fitness programs, use the arena or Pinecrest Road entrances to access our usual reception desk. No access to the Aquatic Centre is available through the arena building. 

  • Starting Monday, November 16, pre-registration is NOT required for any weekday drop-in swimming from Monday to Friday (excluding Friday night Fun Swim). Capacity limits will still be in effect so you may need to wait if the swim is full. Pre-registration will continue for Friday night from 6:30 to 8pm, Saturdays and Sundays. 
  • Please call us at 250-830-6777 or 250-830-6733 if you wish to register a child ages 0-7 with the caregiver rate, or to register with our family rate. Registration for each swim time begins 8 days in advance, and you can continue to register until the swim is full.  
  • All pool facilities will be CLOSED all day on Saturday, November 21 and Sunday, November 22 for the morning for a Campbell River Killer Whales Swim Meet. There are two sessions of pre-registered Fun Swims on Sunday afternoon.
