Safety Breaks – During open swim times in the Rec Pool, at the :50 of each full hour (excluding the final hour), there will be a 10-minute safety break.

Always be sure to check the pool schedules for any changes or updates due to staffing.

This new, state of the art facility is the result of a collaborative partnership between the City of Lake Oswego and the Lake Oswego School District. Made possible through funding from the 2019 Parks Bond, the 2017 School District Bond, and additional City investment, the center supports health, wellness, and lifelong recreation. The center serves residents and surrounding communities of all ages and abilities, creating opportunities for connection, fitness, and recreation for generations to come. It includes:

12-lane competitive pool
4,500 square-foot recreational pool with three additional lanes for lap swimming, spa, and a kid’s area that will include a waterslide and play structures
A significant weight and cardio area
7,250 square foot gym that will equip all types of activities and league play
Locker rooms
Multi-purpose group fitness rooms to hold education and outreach programs, and host events
A welcoming front desk area for centralized check-in, including golf, scheduling, and office space for staff

Community input over the last few years was a benchmark for how the City shaped this project.

This project is state-of-the-art! Let's talk about some of the features:

ADA

Proper grading and pathways for access
Bathroom and locker room are compliant
All pools will be ADA accessible, including 2 pool lifts in the competition pool and 1 in the recreation pool
