Make a Splash: Your Guide to Drop-In Lap Swim for Seniors!

Ready for a refreshing and invigorating workout? The Drop-In Lap Swim program offers the perfect opportunity to glide through the water and achieve fitness goals. Whether someone is a seasoned swimmer or just looking to add aquatic exercise to their routine, there’s a place for them in the pool.

Flexible Schedule: Find the Perfect Swim Time

Recognizing that everyone has different schedules, the Drop-In Lap Swim program is designed for maximum flexibility. Swimmers can check out the diverse schedule and find a time that suits them:

• Early Bird Swims (Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun): Start the day with an energizing swim from 6:45 AM to 8:30 AM. The crisp morning air and tranquil water offer a perfect way to kickstart the day.
• Midday Refresh (Mon-Fri): Need a break? A refreshing swim from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM provides a great way to recharge and refocus.
• Evening Escape (Mon-Fri): Unwind after a long day with a relaxing swim from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM. The water can soothe muscles and wash away stress.
• Weekend Warrior (Saturday): Get a weekend workout in from 1:30 PM to 4:00 PM. It’s a great way to stay active.

Who’s Invited? Swimmers Aged 15+!

Lap Swim is open to swimmers aged 15 and up. Whether someone is training for a competition, recovering from an injury, or simply enjoys the water, they are welcome. (Please note: Hours are subject to change, so checking for updates is recommended.)

Cash-Free Convenience: Streamlined Payment Options

For convenience, the facility is cashless. Credit and debit cards are accepted only at The Plunge. A small surcharge applies to all card transactions. For the most up-to-date rates, contacting the Registration Office at (310) 618-2720 is advised. Here’s a quick overview of the rates:

• Youth (with ID): $3.00
• Adult: $5.00
• Senior: $3.00

A standardized surcharge is applied to payments made using a credit or debit card, which aligns with the cost of acceptance.

Pool Etiquette: Sharing the Lane

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, adhering to these simple pool etiquette guidelines is requested:

• Two Swimmers in a Lane: When two people share a lane, they should communicate and agree on whether to split the lane or circle swim.
• More Than Two Swimmers: When more than two people are in a lane, circle swimming is required.
• Lane Capacity: For safety and comfort, each lane is limited to seven swimmers.

Pro Tip: Save Time and Money with an Online Account

For regular swimmers, adding funds to an online account through the City of Torrance Registration Office is highly recommended. This saves time at the cashier and avoids frequent small charges.
