Aquatic Admission
Admission Standards | ||||||
Supervision requirements are enforced at all swims and pool rentals. Our requirements indicate the maximum number of children that one responsible person, who is at least 14 years old, is able to supervise.
Individuals with serious medical conditions should check in and advise staff at the lifeguard station. |
||||||

Upon arrival at the swim, you’ll complete a facility swim test. To successfully complete the test, you must demonstrate that you can swim continuously for at least 25 metres and treading water (surface support) for one minute. |
Change Room & Washroom Access |
In compliance with the Ontario Human Rights Code, participants, visitors and employees have a right to use a change room or washroom that corresponds to their expressed gender identity, regardless of their sex assigned at birth. Gender identity is based on self-determination only and does not require medical documentation or any other form of “proof” to establish gender identity. Self-identification is the only criterion required to determine which change room or washroom people use. Town employees can provide information to people on various change room and washroom options available so they can decide which one to use for themselves. For individuals requiring additional changeroom accommodations, please speak to our staff.
