The pool at Roger Scott Athletic Complex will open on July 4 with a temporary restroom facility for a shortened summer swim season.
Tonya Byrd, Director of Parks and Recreation, said the pool will open on the Independence Day holiday from 9 a.m. to noon and 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. for open swim hours.
After the holiday, regular hours will run from July 5 – Aug. 7:
• Saturdays: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 2:30 to 7 p.m. (open swim)
• Sundays: Noon to 3 p.m. and 3:30 to 6 p.m. (open swim)
• Mondays-Fridays: 8 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. (open swim); camp swim from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.; and open swim from 2:30 to 7 p.m.
Aug. 8 – Sept. 7 regular hours:
• Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 2:30 to 7 p.m.
• Sundays from noon to 3 p.m. and 3:30 to 6 p.m.
Byrd said the permanent restroom facility will be delivered later this summer and once the 2026 pool season ends, it will be installed. The facility, which will cost $673,310 including site preparation work, is the lion’s share of an $840,410 investment the City has made in the Roger Scott Pool. That investment included repairing the roof at the storage building, replacing the shade coverings at the picnic table area, refurbishing the water slide, and resurfacing the baby pool.
Daily admission at Roger Scott Pool is $5 for adults; $4 for children (ages 3-17); free for children 2 and under; and $4.5 for seniors (ages 50+).
