    Why don’t the pools have fast, medium, or slow lanes?

    There are too many levels of swimmers for just three designations- we have everyone from Olympic athletes to beginners. If there are empty lanes, people will swim in them- regardless of the speed designation. We don’t want to offend someone who may think they’re a fast swimmer, but they’re not the fastest in the pool.

     

    What is the busiest time at the pool?

    The outdoor pools are typically most crowded from 7-8 AM, 12-1 PM, and 4:30-7:00 PM. The Indoor Pool is most crowded from 12-1 PM.

     

    What is Trojan Masters Swimming?
