There will be free swimming Saturday afternoons this summer at the aquatic centre thanks to a sponsorship from Canadian Western Bank.

The sessions run from this Saturday (July 7) to Aug. 11 from 1 to 4:30 p.m. Everyone is welcome on a first-come, first-serve basis, restricted only by pool bathing load capacity. The wave pool, slides, sauna and hot tub will be open as will the fitness centre.

“We are proud that the Canadian Western Bank continues to support these free swims year after year,” said Darcy Walters, the Comox Valley Regional District’s senior manager of recreation facilities. “They recognize the value of the benefits of health, wellness, accessibility and community spirit.”

The Aug. 4 swim will be cancelled due to the Blue Devils swim meet.
