Splish, Splash and Swim Year Round

When most individuals think about swimming they think about summer, sun, waterparks, outdoor pools and beaches.  Residents of Menomonee Falls (and nonresidents too) have the luxury of swimming year round at the North Jr. High Swimming Pool.  Not only is it convenient, it's also reasonably priced at $2 per child and $3 per adult.  If interested, season swim passes are also available.

10 Reasons to Visit the Pool

  1. It's a great place to spend an evening or afternoon with the family when it's cold, raining or snowing outside.
  2. It's a great place to have your child's birthday party.
  3. Swimming is a great way to help achieve certain New Year's resolutions.
  4. Do you have a child in swimming lessons?  It's a great way for him or her to practice what they have learned.
  5. It's a great venue for working towards your Boy Scout, Girl Scout, Brownies or Cub Scouts badge.
  6. It's a great place for friends to hang out.
  7. Swimming and water do wonders for joints and muscles.
  8. When school's out attend one of our Splash Parties.
  9. It's a great place to go for a weekend play date (parents must accompany children under 7).
  10. It's a great place for kids to burn off energy before that Friday night sleepover.
