Senior Aquatics - ages 65+

The Downtown Community Center is proud to offer a free Senior Aquatics program for community residents ages 65+. We offer both open swim sessions as well as various senior swim classes and clinics. Seniors love our warm water and welcoming staff.

Senior Open Swim and Lap Swim

Seniors may enjoy Open Swim and Lap Swim 5 days per week. During designated hours our entire pool is devoted to our seniors - half of our pool reserved for Senior Lap Swimming, and half of our pool is open for seniors to enjoy as they please.

Current Senior Swim hours:
Monday - Friday 12:30 PM - 2 PM

Steam Room

Seniors are also welcome to use our Steam Room during designated Senior Swim hours. We ask all seniors to receive permission from their doctor before using the
Steam Room.

Current Senior Steam Room hours:
Monday - Friday 12:30 PM - 2 PM

Senior Water Exercise

Our Senior Water Exercise classes are perhaps the most popular part of our Senior Program. Lisa, our wonderful Water Exercise Instructor, leads seniors through a series of movements and exercises twice weekly. The class drop-in and included in our free Senior Program.

Our Senior Water Exercise Class is currently offered:
Tuesdays 12:45 PM - 1:30 PM
Thursdays 12:45 PM - 1:30 PM

Senior Swim Clinics

Each month our experienced Swim Instructors lead a Swim Clinic for seniors of all abilities. This is a great opportunity for our seniors to work on their swimming technique, or for some, to learn to swim for the very first time. While Senior Swim Clinics always take place during regular Senior Swim hours, specific dates and times of each session are TBD and will be advertised at the pool and announced directly to our Seniors.
