Quick Facts:

  • Swimming has been offered in Harrison Park since 1933. In 1978, it was upgraded to a pool from a swimming pond and renovated in 2018 to provide a leisure swimming facility following the construction of the indoor pool at the Julie McArthur Rec Centre, operated by the YMCA. 
  • Nestled under the trees near Weavers’ Creek in Harrison Park, Owen Sound’s only outdoor heated public pool is fully staffed with professional lifeguards.
  • Harrison Park Pool is fully accessible, including a fully accessible change room and ramp access into the pool. 
  • Swimming Lessons, Swimming Lessons Schedule and Private Rental Fees at the Harrison Park Pool are available by contacting the YMCA by phone at 519-376-0484 ext. 226 or by emailing aquatics@osgb.ymca.ca.
