About Open Swim
As of August 29, 2022 OPEN SWIM is CLOSED for the summer at Rinconada. Open Swim is held in our Play Pool (Kiddie Pool) and our Lap Swim pool.
Lifeguards are on duty at all times during open swim. No registration required, just drop in.
Non-swimmers must be accompanied in the water by a parent within arm’s reach.
Children 5 years and younger must have a parent/guardian (16+) in the pool, within arm’s reach at all times.
Children 6 – 12 years must have a parent/guardian (16+) on the pool deck supervising them, unless they are attending a registered class or program.
What to Bring
We highly recommend wearing swim-shoes when participating in Open Swim in either our Lap Pool or Play Pool. The pool floor is a bit rough on bare feet and we want to make sure you’re comfortable!
Safety Protocols – Covid 19 Restrictions
Rinconada Pool is fully reopen. At this point, all current Covid-19 restrictions and safety protocols will no longer be in effect.

Policies
Conduct Safety
Please help ensure a great experience for everyone. Before you send your young swimmers to the pool, be aware that we wish to maintain high standards for conduct with emphasis on safety. We encourage behavior that is respectful and mature, and our guards will enforce safety rules with regard to running on deck, roughhousing and courtesy.
Children
Children 5 years and under must have a parent/guardian in the pool, within arm’s reach at all times.
Children 6 – 12 years must have a parent/guardian on the pool deck supervising them, unless they are attending a registered class or program.
Diaper policy: Double up
Help us keep the pools open by using both a disposable swim diaper and reusable diaper cover for your children who are not fully toilet-trained.
Lap Swimming during Open Swim
Adults who pay for Open Swim are welcome to swim laps during Open Swim times without paying extra fees. Alternatively, you can register and pay for Lap Swim membership on a monthly basis which automatically gives you all day access to the pools.
