Lane Availability
This schedule of lane availability is updated each semester to reflect the general lane availability based on groups and activities with reserved space. In general, the opening hours from 6 am – early afternoon on weekdays and Saturday & Sunday afternoons are the best times to swim with minimal need to share a lap lane. Year-round, the evening hours of 5 – 7:15 pm are the peak hours during which pool programming is high and minimal lanes are available for “open” swim
