SRC pool and sauna hours
Pool
Proper swim attire is required for all users of the SRC pool. This is required to ensure the safety of our patrons, cleanliness of our facility, clarity of our water and proper upkeep of our mechanical systems. Clothing worn during exercise or prior to showering introduces additional organic compounds to the pool that will react with the chlorine, producing the chemicals that result in the chlorine smell of a pool (chloramines). These are not only unpleasant to the senses; they can also have an effect on the eyes and respiratory system. Non-swim attire also absorbs additional bacteria, detergent and chemicals which are released into the water and can effect water chemistry and clarity. Non-swim attire often breaks down in the water leaving behind particles of clothing that can clog and damage our filtration systems for the pool. Non-swim attire in the saunas also introduces additional bacteria to the surface of these areas which contributes to the spread of disease and germs. To keep our facility clean and our patrons safe, we ask that all patrons wear proper swim attire and shower before entering our pool and saunas.
