The CitiParks Aquatics staff once again worked hard to ensure 15 pools can open to provide everyone with a place to enjoy the summer,” said Mayor Ed Gainey. “In addition to pools providing a safe place for our kids to play this summer, they also provide older kids good summer jobs that can help prepare them for future careers.”

Pool Tags will be available beginning opening day at all open pool entry gates. Save time and complete your application before you visit the pools: 2024 Pool Tag Application. Children 15 and under, who are City residents, are able to swim for free.
As noted earlier in June, the three remaining pools that are not able to open due to maintenance/renovation work are:
HOMEWOOD: Due to the major park renovation happening in Homewood Park.
REAM: Safety issues with decking, as well as cement and liner issue will prevent this pool from opening.
SHERADEN: A number of renovations required for the pool and pool building will prevent this pool from opening.
