Pools

Pools Available for Rental

All pools may be reserved for private parties May 27 - August 30. Pool Rentals will begin on April 17, 2023

Refunds or rescheduling will be made available only if the city cancels the party due to inclement weather or when swimmers are unable to get into the pool due to contamination.

Pool Guidelines: Have Fun, Be Safe, Learn to Swim!

To keep pools safe we ask patrons to follow these guidelines:

• Large floats or inner tubes are not permitted, as they obstruct the view of the lifeguards. Water guns, throwing toys or other items that may cause harm are prohibited. Small floating toys or pouring toys are acceptable for tots. Safety of items will be determined at the discretion of the pool staff.
• Children may wear coastguard-approved PFDs with close parental supervision.
• Patrons swimming with children who wear diapers must use "leak proof" baby swimsuits, swim diapers, or diapers covered with snug-fitting plastic pants.
• Parents are encouraged to accompany their children to the pool and to supervise them closely while in the water. They are also asked to discuss pool safety rules with their children and to encourage respect for pool rules and pool staff.

Inclement Weather Policy

The City of Decatur takes no responsibility for the weather.

Rainchecks will not be issued for patrons who have entered the water.

In the event of inclement weather, the two hour limit will be suspended and patrons may wait until the weather clears before returning to swim.

Patrons may also leave the facility and will be readmitted later in the day once the weather has cleared.

A raincheck will be issued for patrons who have paid to swim, but were prevented from entering the water by thunder or lightning.
