Semones Family YMCA
SPLASH INTO FUN
We provide swim lessons in a fun and safe environment, as well as aquatic exercise classes and competitive swim programs for adults and youth. Class size is determined by safety factors as well as age of participants and is closely monitored to ensure safety.
The Semones Aquatic Center includes the Clark Natatorium, the Siverthorne Pool, and the Sherwood Blount Family Sprayground.
The Indoor Pool is 25 yards and 6 lanes. It is heated between 83 and 86 degrees and holds 130,000 gallons of water. It is open year-round except for two weeks for cleaning.
Our Outdoor Pool is 25 yards by 25 meters and 10 lanes. It is heated, if necessary, to 81 degrees, but will close if the outside temperature is below 45 degrees. There are 2 one-meter springboards. The outdoor pool holds 394,000 gallons of water.
Our Instructional Pool is 40 feet by 40 feet, 2 1/2 feet on opposite sides and continues to 4 feet in the center.
