Important Note
- CU Athletics reserves the right to schedule private lessons, Lifesaving programs, or other internal programming during public swims.
- CU Athletics reserves the right to change the swim space allocation of public swims to meet program needs, staffing and/or regulation requirement.
- Long-course (50m) swimming not be available in July/August.
Unauthorized formal private coaching or instruction is NOT permitted during Recreation or Fitness swim times.
Large Private Group
We are unable to accommodate large private groups (of 8+ people) during public (Recreation & Fitness) swims.
Our public swims operate on a drop-in, first-come, first-served basis, and admission is granted no more than 30 minutes prior to the scheduled swim time. As a result, we are unable to arrange advance admission, reservations, or group payments for large private groups during these sessions. Large groups wishing to attend together are encouraged to book a private rental. Booking a rental ensures appropriate staffing levels and allows time for required swim testing to be conducted safely.
