August 19th What’s Happening At The Pool…

Hello Swimmers,

Somehow the end of August is nearing but we still have plenty of fun times to be had down at the pool. Let’s keep the good times rolling these final few weeks of the 2024 summer!

No More Under Swim-A-Thon

Wedgwood is hosting a swim-a-thon on September 2nd (Labor Day) from 8:30AM-12PM to support our non-profit partner, No More Under. They are a local nonprofit organization dedicated to saving lives through water safety education, legislation, and increasing equitable access to swimming lessons and tools. No More Under’s founder lost her son, Yori, to a drowning accident in 2018. This tragic and preventable death is one which too many families endure. Through her journey of grief, she created No More Under to ensure other families do not endure a similar tragedy.

No More Under builds free, equitable, learn-to-swim programs. 

How can you get involved?

You are welcome to swim during any session. We do have recommended timeframes.

●      12 & Under (8:40AM -9:40AM)
●      13-18 years (9:50AM-10:50AM)
●      Adults (11:00AM-12:00PM)

We will be following circle swimming rules and have speed signs so that swimmers can select an appropriate lane. 

Water Show: 8/23 Dress Rehearsal, 8/24 The Big Show at Sundown

The practices are underway and the dance moves are looking spectacular. Save the date and come on down for the show of the summer as our kids (and adults?) and staff put on a show for all. The pool will be closing at 7:00pm both Saturday and Sunday to get ready for the performances.

Labor Day Games

Following the No More Under Swim-A-Thon we will be hosting our annual labor day games and ping pong tournament. Sign ups or the ping pong tournament will be posted in the lobby soon along with the schedule for the day.
