We are pleased to announce that registration for the 2021 pool season will begin on May 29th at 9am.
This year, you will be able to register online via our website at http://piscinelakeshore.com.
Payments must then be made by cash or cheque and sent to /dropped off at:
5 av du Parc-Penhurst, Pointe-Claire, H9S 3Y6. Please note that this is a drop off location only and no one is available to answer your questions, please do not knock or ring the doorbell. All questions should be sent by email to [email protected]
For those who would prefer to fill out a form manually, you may print one form our website (Saturday), and return it with your payment to the address above. We will also accept payments during the opening weekend at the pool. However, please note that your Omnify account (used for booking free swim time slots) will only be activated upon receipt of payment, and activation can take up to 3 days.
The pool will open on June 12th with preseason hours (weekend 12pm – 8pm, and weekdays 3pm – 8pm). Regular season hours will begin on June 19th (schedule to come) and programs will begin on June 28th (schedule to come).
Membership costs have been reduced to reflect that capacities will be limited, and programming may be modified at any time in order to comply with government and Public Health directives. Memberships will be reserved exclusively for Pointe-Claire residents and 2019/2020 non-resident members. Memberships are available as an individual ($40/resident, $50/non-resident) or family ($160 for a resident family of 4 or more, $200 for a non-resident family of 4 or more). Please note that membership is free for children under the age of 2.
This summer we will offer free swim and lap swimming time slots, which like last year, must be booked in advance, through the Omnify booking system. Instructions on how to book time slots will be sent out at a later time.
In addition to recreational swimming, we are excited to be able to offer some programming! In order to respect the guidelines for the number of participants allowed in the pool at once, registration is required for the following programs:
- Aquafitness
- Swimming lessons (am and pm lessons available, schedule to be determined)
***Please note that for WHITE, YELLOW, GREEN and RED swimming levels, a parent must be in the water with their child for the lesson.
- Swim team – participants must be a BLUE swimming level
- Synchro team- participants must be a BLUE swimming level
- Water polo team – participants must be a BLUE swimming level
- Diving team – participants must be able to swim across the deep-end unassisted
- Masters swimming
A description of the skills required per swimming level are available on our website. Please note that the Pool Manager reserves the right to move a child to a different swimming level if necessary.
You will be asked to sign-up for these programs when registering online, or you may check off your preferences on the print-out form. In order to have ample time to create appropriate group sizes for these programs and respect pool capacity restrictions, the registration deadline for programs is Wednesday June 9th. After this time, registration for all programs will be closed, and members who registered for programs will be emailed their lesson and/or team schedules. There will be no drop-ins allowed for lessons, teams, Aquafitness or Masters swimming programs.Please note that there is no time limit to join the pool as a recreational member.
Lastly, the wading pool and the canteen will remain closed this summer. Washrooms will be available upon request, and members must bring their own folding chairs again this year.
Looking forward to seeing you at the pool!
