Family Swim

Family swim is a great way to share the fun of the Dixon Pool. When participating in family swim time, the following supervision limits and guidelines will be strictly enforced:

  • Must be accompanied by a participating adult (age 18 or older) at all times
  • May only participate during Family Access Hours  
  • If a child is not able to move in the water without feet touching the bottom or needs to wear a life-jacket, the child is considered a non-swimmer. Only three “non-swimmers” per adult and the adult must be in the water within arm’s reach of the children.
  • Only five “swimmers” per adult and the adult must be able to directly observe the children.
  • Babies are allowed in the pool with plastic swim diapers
