CV Rec Guide winter 2026

DROP-IN PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS PLEASE REFER TO THE APPROPRIATE POOL SCHEDULE Lane Swim+ At least 2 lanes are available for length swimming during these times. Additional lanes will be available if not in use by other programs and rentals. Flutter boards, pull buoys and hand paddles are available on deck and suggested lane speed signs (i.e. Leisure, Moderate and Fast) will be posted. The backstroke flags will be up whenever possible (i.e. when the diving board is not in use). Lane etiquette pamphlets are available on site and online for your convenience. Please note we may go down to 1 lane during fitness classes at the Aquatic Centre M/W/F 10-11 AM & T//T 9-10 AM & 5-6 PM. Everyone Welcome Swim All ages welcome and fun encouraged at this high energy swim time in the Wave Pool. The waves, slides and various water features will be on intermittently throughout the swim. Please note the 25 M Lane Pool is not always open during the Everyone Welcome Swims (please see schedule). When the lane pool is open there is space for large toys (i.e. foam canoes, mats etc.) and the diving board is available. 2 lanes are also reserved for length swimmers and other areas of the pools may be set aside for other programs or rentals. See special event calendar & Water Play schedule for the “extra” fun times. Easy Flow Swim Although this swim is open to everyone it is targeted at people looking for a more relaxed pace than the Everyone Welcome Swim. The waves and slides will not be available and a minimum of 2 lanes will be reserved for length swimmers if the 25 M Lane Pool is open. Rentals and programs could take place in the pools at the same time so the space will be shared. Please give organized group activities the right of way. 16+ Swim This time is for youth 16+ and adults only. 2 lanes are available for length swimming and the waves and slides will be on intermittently. Rentals and programs will be taking place in the pools at the same time. Please note the diving board will be closed if there are rentals/programs using that space. Some nights have value added programs such as scuba, water polo or volleyball. Check the schedule for dates/times. Kayak Hour Bring your kayak and practice your moves. $9.13 per person with kayak. Sharing a kayak - extra kayakers pay regular admission.
