SPORTS & RECREATION
Sedona Community Pool opens this weekend
By Brian Bergner Jr,
LARSON NEWSPAPERS
The weird hot, then cold, then
hot, then cold again weather the
Verde Valley has experienced
lately isn't going to stop the
Sedona Parks and Recreation
Department from opening the
Sedona Community Pool in West
Sedona to the public Saturday,
May 29.
With school coming to a close,
it's a perfect time for a little fun
in the sun. Make sure to bring the
sunscreen.
The good news for swim
fans out there is the Sedona
Community Pool, which is near
Posse Grounds Park, will be open
until Sunday, Aug. 8.
That gives everyone 10 weeks
to come out and splash some
water during free swim, take in a
few laps, or join a water aerobics
class.
Either way, there's something
for everyone at the Sedona
Community Pool.

First, we should immediately
get out of the way what it actually
costs to come swim this summer.

up to 2 is free, while children up
to age 3 to 17 cost just $2 a visit.

[ages 3 to 17] it's $45, and for an

Buying passes in bulk saves
nearly 20 percent in'he long run,
making it easier on room' and
class such as swimming
lessons.

individuals can swim laps during
lunch while recreational swim-
ming takes place from 1 to 4
p.m.

winning the championship,"

"What is 'remarkable about
this team is that only two players
had ever had any .competitive
experience before this season.
Considering the team injuries
and learning to deal with nerves,
it was a terrific win, and being
able to practice at Poco Diablo
Resort was a big help to us," she
added.
