Description

"Sensory Friendly Lane and Leisure Swim offers a quieter, more comfortable aquatic experience for participants who benefit from reduced sensory input. This swim time is designed for individuals of all ages looking for a quieter swim and calmer pool environment.

During this program, the aquatic environment is adjusted to help reduce overstimulation. This may include lowered noise levels (no direct music played), limited use of whistles, and fewer participants in the pool. Both lane swimming and leisure swimming areas are available, allowing participants to choose the activity that best suits their comfort level and abilities.

This program encourages inclusive participation, personal wellness, and confidence in the water in a supportive and welcoming setting. Caregivers, family members, and support persons are welcome to attend in accordance with admission and supervision requirements.

Please note: Participants who require individual support while in the water must attend with their own caregiver, support person, or aide. Lifeguards are on duty to provide supervision and ensure pool safety, but they are not available to provide one-to-one in-water support or personal care assistance."


Regular Swim Admission Guidelines apply.

Cancellations or transfers must be completed by 11:59pm the day prior to start of program.
