The least busy times for lap swimming at the pools tend to be during weekdays from opening until around 4 PM, when the pools are generally quieter. Additionally, later in the evening, after 8 PM, tends to be a less busy time, allowing for more lap lane availability and a quieter swim environment. Keep in mind that lane availability can vary due to scheduled swim lessons, team practices, or special events, so it’s always a good idea to check the current aquatics schedules or contact your local club for the most up-to-date lane availability.
Salem and Londonderry both have a robust schedule, with swim lessons or swim team practice mostly held in the late afternoon and early evening, which can also minimize lane availability during those times.

Wearing proper swimming attire helps maintain pool cleanliness and complies with facility policies.
Do I have to shower before entering the pool?
Yes, all swimmers are required to shower before entering the pools. Showers are available on deck as well as in locker rooms to promote cleanliness and hygiene, ensuring a safe and pleasant experience for everyone using the pool. This policy helps keep the water clean by removing lotions, sweat, and other contaminants that can affect water quality and sanitation.
