Aquatics Schedule Do not be disappointed! Check to see what features you can expect during scheduled swim times.

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.

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.

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

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

**Aquatic fitness admission includes public swimming access. No extensions or suspensions permitted on 1 year memberships due to stats/closures. Admission rates include GST.

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

Your programs are so important and greatly needed with this aging population. Better at Home Program Participant With a shared desire to improve community services and enhance the wellbeing of seniors, a diverse group of non-profit organizations and government partners came together to form Aging Well Penticton. The partners work together to broaden opportunities for seniors to be active, connected and engaged in community life. Our activities are as diverse as the people we support, and have included physical recreation, social outings, arts programs, intergenerational programs, volunteering, grief and loss counselling, supports for family caregivers, personalized outreach, home services, mental health supports and more. Seniors Information & Resources helps seniors and their caregivers in Penticton and region to connect with community services and government resources. The service is free, confidential and provided by trained staff and volunteers. We can be a starting point for resources to age well and manage the challenges of life, whether big or small. We can provide information about: • Home care and community supports • Housing and assisted living • Financial benefits (OAS/GIS) • Government programs • Mental health and grief support • Personal assistance services • Transportation • Social and physical activity programs Seniors Information & Resources Phone Line agingwellpenticton.ca Call us at 778-SENIORS (778-736-4677), or email: Seniors.Info@OneSkyCommunity.com
