The pool is heated by the environment as well as a boiler. Staff strives to keep to water at 78o, as the optimal temperature for both lap swimmers and recreational swimmers. The temperature of the water varies based on the environmental conditions.
Once the posted pool capacity is reached, staff will allow one person to enter for every one person that leaves in order to maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for all of our guests. Both Rehm and Ridgeland Pools have a counting system to keep track of attendance. Rehm’s system counts both at the front entrance and the exit by the diving well to ensure proper count.
All attractions are open during all open swim times. These attractions are not open during lap swims or swim lessons.
The wading pool at Rehm is open 1:00-6:00P.
Attractions may close due to low attendance, poor weather, or low staffing levels.
Non potty-trained and recently potty-trained children are allowed to swim, but must have all of the following:
- Rubber pants
- Swim diapers
- A lined bathing suit
Rubber pants and swim diapers are sold at the cashier booths at the pool. We have a limited quantity of standard child sizes available that are sold at a first-come first-serve basis. Due to the limited availability, we highly recommend bringing your own.
In the event of an accident in the pool, the water must be cleared for 30 minutes. Please help to keep the pool open by ensuring all non potty-trained and recently potty-trained children are wearing all the items listed above.
Both Rehm and Ridgeland pools are 50 meters long by 60 feet wide. Ridgeland offers one 25 yard lap lane during all public and passholder swims.
