The Recreation Department operates and maintains an outdoor pool on George Street North in Thamesford. This pool serves the residents of Thamesford, Kintore, and the surrounding areas making it a busy place during the summer. Seasonal full and part time staff work diligently to keep the pool clean and safe in order to provide an enjoyable facility for the public. A wide range of aquatic programs are offered by the lifeguards and swimming instructors. The pool is also available for rent and the facility is heated.

Please review all rules and guidelines before visiting the pool. If you are feeling unwell, or exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19, do not visit our pool - STAY HOME.
