BECOMING A MEMBER GIVES YOU ACCESS TO THE POOL, BUT THAT IS NOT ALL:
ALPs IS BACK!
* Be part of the diving team
* Be part of the swim team
* Be part of the synchronized swimming team
The Western Lachine Pool is a member of the Lakeshore Pools Association (ALPs), a group of 22 West Island pools that was formed in 1958. Each member pool can create swimming, diving, synchronized swimming and water polo teams, that are composed of pool members and instructed by qualified coaches who are employed by the respective pools. The pandemic had interrupted the competitions, but they will resume this summer!
Join one or more teams and discover or improve in an aquatic sport you love! Being a member of our teams gives you the chance to be part of a friendly group of young people who develop a competitive spirit together.
When are the teams training? How do I sign up? Children as young as 5 years old can register. The registration date(s) and team schedule will be available soon.
SWIMMING LESSONS
For the last time this summer, the Western Lachine Pool is offering Red Cross swimming lessons. The Red Cross has decided to prioritize its attention to humanitarian help, among other things, and will no longer be supporting the swimming lesson program by the end of the year. We must therefore choose a new program to be implemented for the 2023 season. We will keep you informed.
When are the swimming lessons? How do I sign up? You can already consult the guides in the "2022 registration forms" section before registering for the dates announced on the site.
LIFEGUARD COURSE
The Western Lachine Pool is proud of its community involvement but also has the interest to ensure the preparation of the next generation by training young people who would like to become lifeguards, either at our pool or elsewhere.
When are the classes? How do I sign up? We are planning to teach Bronze Cross and Bronze Medal courses during the season. Details will be sent to you as soon as possible. Children must be 13 years or older to register.
LEADERS
This summer, the Leaders program is back! What exactly is a Leader? A Leader is a young member that is 9 years or older who can't get enough of the pool! Leaders help with pool tasks, organize fun activities and learn what it's like to be a Western Lachine Pool lifeguard! If this sounds like a fun challenge for your summer, make sure to sign-up and join us!
When is it? How do I sign up? Registration date and schedule will be available soon.
AQUA-FIT / AQUA-ZUMBA / AQUA-FUN / YOGA
We will be offering our popular Aqua-fit, Aqua-Zumba, Aqua-fun, and yoga classes again this year.
When will it be offered? How do I sign up? Registration dates and times are still to be confirmed; all details will be announced shortly.
DO YOU WANT TO BRING A FRIEND?
This year, we are resuming the sale of booklets of 10 tickets for $50, available to members only, allowing them to invite friends who are not members of the pool, whether they are from the neighborhood or elsewhere! There is no purchase limit, so take advantage of it!
When are the booklets available? Where do I buy them? The booklets can be purchased at the pool at any time during our opening hours.
