Lap Swimming Etiquette 101

The nature of lap swimming is dynamic and can change throughout a workout. The following guidelines will assist in making an effective and enjoyable experience for all.

1. Select a lane containing swimmers moving as closely as possible to the pace that one realistically expects to swim throughout their entire workout.

2. Keep right except to pass – no lane splitting.

3. If you are constantly passing swimmers, move up a lane. If you are constantly being passed, move down a lane.

4. Use common sense, communication and respect to share the space as best you can… no one has a right to “own” a lane.

When in doubt, talk to the people in your lane and, if all else fails, ask the lifeguard. It is not the role of a lifeguard to “police” the lanes, but they are happy to answer questions about common conventions and provide suggestions for possible solutions.

Swim Lesson Information

To help provide a safe, equitable and successful lesson experience, please follow these guidelines:

• Limit registration to one lesson set per child

• Public swimming admissions and supervision requirements apply for participants and their parents/guardians who wish to utilize the pools before, during, or after lessons (where available)

• Check in with reception staff a maximum of 10 minutes before your lesson start time

• Infants and toddlers must wear swim diapers, which are available for purchase at reception

• Registered participants must wait on the pool deck until under the direct supervision of their instructor

Leash-Optional Pilot Project

March 1 - August 31, 2024

Penticton pups have the opportunity to explore five new leash-optional areas as part of a six-month pilot project. Well-behaved dogs must be monitored and under control at all times as these locations are not fenced and the parks remain a shared space. Owners are responsible for their dog’s behaviour and safety at all times.

Watch for specially marked spaces within these areas:

•Riverside Park

•Okanagan Lake Park

•Skaha Park Main

•Skaha Park East

•1900 Penticton Ave (Entrance to Wastewater Treatment Plant)

How was your visit?

Let us know!

We want to hear from you! Dog or no dog, share your experience at shapeyourcitypenticton.ca. Feedback will be collected until the end of the pilot program on August 31.
