QUICK FACTS ABOUT THE POOL
The pool was originally built between 1960 & 1961 as a 25 yard pool, but was replaced with a new 25 meter pool in 1989 & 1990 at a cost of $190,000. Our main pool and wading pool hold over 160,000 gallons of water. That's over twice the amount of water the average Lawrence Township household uses in one year.

LAP SWIMMING
During regular hours, and outside of Swim Team practice, there is almost always at least one dedicated lane for lap swimming. If a lane is crowded, guards can add an additional lane for lap swimmers.

If you are a lap swimmer, here are some lengths you may want to know!
100 meters = 110 yards
400 meters = 440 yards (1/4 mile)
800 meters = 880 yards (1/2 mile)
1,600 meters = 1,760 yards (1 mile)
In our 25-meter pool:
1/4 mile is 16 lengths (400 meters)
1/2 mile is 32 lengths (800 meters)
1 mile is 64 lengths (1,600 meters)
Picture
In a 25-yard pool:
1/4 miles is about 18 lengths (450 yards)
1/2 mile is about 35 lengths (875 yards)
1 mile is about 70 lengths (1,750 yards)
