Lap Swim
Lanes are dedicated to lap swimming in the Competition Pool and the Recreational Pool seven days a week year-round, and are under lifeguard supervision at all times. Colored cones indicate lane usage.
One or two swimmers may split a lane. Three or more swimmers must circle swim, counter-clockwise (staying to the right in each direction). If you are the third swimmer entering a lane, please make sure the other two swimmers are made aware before you start swimming.
Lanes are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please note lap swimming lane availability varies daily, based upon scheduled programming and events. During peak times, generally 3 – 9 pm Monday – Friday, lap swim lane availability is limited. Lane availability schedules can be found below.
Aqua walking is allowed in the shallow end of the Recreational Pool.
The minimum age for lap swim is 8 years old. All lap swimmers must be able to swim the entire length of the lane and may be subject to a swim test at the direction of Lifeguard staff. For swimmers under the age of 14, adult supervision is required.
At the RBAC:
We ask that you self-screen for symptoms prior to arrival. We ask that do not come to the Center if you show any signs of illness or are under quarantine or isolation orders.
Locker rooms are available for the storage of personal belongings. Please provide your own lock.
Everyone must rinse off prior to their swim.
