Aquatics
USS has two pools available that provide a wide range of ways to exercise. Our aquatics center provides opportunities for open swim as well as instructor-led classes in both pools. Regardless of your fitness experience, there are opportunities for you.
Both pools are equipped with chair lifts to aid members to get in and out of the pool. If chair lifts are used, the member must be accompanied in the pool by a caregiver with an Associate Membership. USS aquatics center staff must operate the equipment and cannot act as caregivers.
The pools are only open when USS lifeguards or instructors are on duty. Members must observe reasonable time limits in the pool when it is busy.
