Open 9-11 Today

We’re open 9-11 today. We’re monitoring the weather, but it’s just drizzly right now.

We’ll be open 6-8a and 4-6p during the week.

Still looking for volunteers who want to get CPR certified and help be coach attendants. Email volunteer@eastparkpool.org with your availability in the next two weeks for the in-person training. Takes a couple hours and we want to do it as a group.

26.10 October Update

The October utility bill was 3,899.10. That bill alone requires us to have 13 adult/26 youth swimmers per day. The chemical bill requires another 7.5 adult/15 youth swimmers per day. Then we have insurance and other bills.

In October, we saw an average of 9.8 adult/9 youth swimmers per day. Some people contribute more to keep us treading water, but just barely.

We are also struggling to keep coach attendants. We have a trainer willing to do a group training. We just need willing and able volunteers.

We are open for lap swim 6-8a and 4-6p weekdays. We are still looking for coach attendants for this weekend.

There is a heater on deck now thanks to Heath.

Thanks for supporting community swimming in Los Alamos.

Still Open

Greetings Members & Friends,

We’re still open 6-8a and 4-6p for lap swim M-F, and 9-11a weekends as long as y’all show up. We only have 2 swimmers this morning so far.

Water temp 80.5⁰F. Air temp 44⁰F.

We could still use more coach attendants, or even better, lifeguards. We found somebody who can do these trainings in the next week or two for anyone willing to commit to the online training and a couple hours in person. If you’re interested, email us at info@eastparkpool.org with your availability for the in-person training in the next couple weeks.

Already First Aid/CPR certified? Would you be willing to volunteer a couple hours a week to be a coach attendant? It would really help avoid burning out our coaches.

Need Coach For Lap Swim This Weekend

Hi all,

Our normal weekend coach has a meet out of town this weekend. We are looking for a volunteer from 9-11a Saturday & Sunday, or if you’re only available for other hours, we can change the schedule. If you are willing and able, please email us at info@eastparkpool.org.

We also need more volunteers to help with weekday shifts.

Today’s hours changed 9-11 AM

Greetings Members and Friends,

Sorry for the last minute notice, but we’re open 9-11 AM today.

Also, some swimmers really want us to stay open so I guess we’re staying open.

Now we really need you to show up and swim and volunteer to help keep the facility clean. And if you’re not CPR/First Aid certified, go get trained! There’s a class at The Family YMCA next week.

Final Week (For Reals)

Greetings Members,

This is our last week. Seriously this time. Water is 78.5⁰F. Air temp is 36⁰F. Come be a crazy person and swim today 9-11a, tomorrow 10:30-12:30p. 6-8a & 4-6p M-F this week.

Final week schedule

Thanks everyone for your support this year. The best thing you can do to support us now is to become a member next year or just come swim this week. If you don’t want to swim, then make a donation.

We need to raise $150k to open next year. If we do that, we can have nice things like free guest passes, a snack bar, more swim lessons, and an actual maintenance budget.

Our board members are retiring so we need people to step up. With more volunteer organizers, we could even do things like full-day swim camps. This is your community pool and it is what you make it.

County Pool Discussion Tomorrow Night

Greetings Members and Friends,

Everything is going pretty well at the pool. LAHS started swimming today and weather has been great this past week. Somebody said they felt like it was California. You should come swim while it lasts!

The County will be giving a presentation to Council tomorrow on the status of the aquatic center and alternative swimming locations. We would like them to send us guards so we can expand hours and provide recreational swimming. You should submit an eComment or email to Council before noon tomorrow with any questions you would like Council to discuss.

We’ll be staying open as long as the weather allows.

Don’t forget the member meeting October 14 6:00 PM at Mesa Library.

Thanks for supporting East Park Pool.
