Medgar Evers Pool
This indoor pool facility next to a community center features a heated pool with a shallow teaching area, rope swing and diving board. Parents can bring toddlers and preschoolers to Pool Playland, a gentle recreation swim in the shallow pool where children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult and lifejackets are available. Swim lessons are offered quarterly for children as young as 6 months, with both group and private options to build basic water skills.
