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.
