 Natural Resources, Parks and Recreation launching pool rentals for 2024 swim season
PIMA COUNTY, April 30, 2024 – Starting May 2, Pima County Natural Resources, Parks & Recreation (NRPR) will begin offering private pool rentals at three locations.
In addition to the previously existing Party Zone rentals, individuals will now be able to reserve the entire pool at Manzanita Pool, Northwest YMCA – Thad Terry Pool, and Wade McLean Pool from 5:15 to 7:15 p.m. any Saturday between June 1 and Aug. 3.
Reservations open May 2 at 9 a.m. and must be made through NRPR’s online reservation system.
“Pima County Parks and Recreation has seen a growing interest in residents wanting to rent County pools for private events each summer,” said NRPR recreation superintendent Grant Bourguet. “Our goal is to provide residents a unique experience, at an affordable rate, in a safe and professionally monitored facility.”
Renting one of the three facilities will cost $250, which covers the cost of admission for a maximum of 65 guests, lifeguards, and operation of water features during the two-hour rental window. Parties will be allowed to bring grills, cakes, piñatas, music, tables, chairs and additional shade structures. NRPR aquatic facilities will not provide tables or chairs.
In addition to the private facility rental, NRPR will once again be offering their Party Zone rentals in 2024. This semi-private rental option allows for private use of the dedicated Party Zone at the chosen facility for up 30 individuals for only $50. Rental of a facilities designated Party Zone reserves that area for the individual while the pool itself remains open to the general public. More information about both the Party Zone rental and the Private Facility Rental can be found at NRPR’s Party Zone and Private Rental page.
The summer 2024 private rental program will serve as a pilot test to help Pima County determine new and creative ways to best serve its citizens and take full advantage of the facilities and programs it offers.
“Ultimately our goal within NRPR’s aquatics team is to provide a safe and affordable option for the people of Pima County to enjoy during the summer,” Bourguet said.
