9/15 EHMS Indoor Pool OPENS

With our outdoor pools now closed for the season, East Hartford Parks and Recreation is excited to announce that we are resuming our aquatics operations at the East Hartford Middle School Indoor Pool, offering opportunities for residents and non-residents to continue swimming during the school year.

Public Swim for Residents and Non-Residents will be offered on weekday evenings beginning Monday, September 15th:

  • Open Swim/Lap Swim (all ages) will be held on Mondays and Thursdays from 6:45-8:30pm and on Tuesdays and Fridays from 5:45-8:30pm. There will be 2 lanes designated for lap swimming only during open swim. Lifeguards at their discretion can eliminate the 2 lap swimming lanes if the pool is crowded.
  • Senior Swim will be offered on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons from 4:45-5:45pm. This will be a period for open swim for seniors to swim on their own. There will be 2 lanes designated for lap swimming only during Senior Swim.
  • Locker rooms will close promptly at 8:45pm. Please ensure you allow yourself enough time to exit the premises before this time.
  • Please note this schedule is subject to change and swimmers may share the pool with programs going on at the same time.
