MANITOU SPRINGS SWIMMING & FITNESS CENTER

Severe Weather (Snow storm):

The Manitou Pool & Fitness Center programs/classes will be cancelled if District 14 schools close for severe weather conditions. Programs include: aqua-aerobics, swim team, swim lessons, weight training classes, etc.

However, unless the City of Manitou Springs closes due to severe weather, we will remain open for our regular lap swim, recreation swim and personal use of the weight room until 4pm. Depending on road conditions, please call the pool before you head out to be sure staff has arrived (as they may be delayed). If programs are cancelled, the pool will have lap/recreation swim throughout the day.

General schedule if programs/classes are cancelled due to weather:

• Regular morning schedule except during aqua-aerobics, the pool will have lap/public swim during these times. Weightroom will be open all day until 4pm. Please call before reporting for morning lap swim to ensure the lifeguard has arrived.
• Afternoon schedule will be as posted except lap/public swim will be extended to 4:00pm.
• Facility will close at 4pm! 

Lightning Policy:

The Manitou Pool has five lightining rods attached to its structure to reduce the chance of a lightning strike affecting people inside the building. The indoor pool and spa will not close during a lightning storm, but you always have the choice to get out of the pool during a storm. However, since the baby pool is outdoors, we will close the baby pool when lightning is within 5 miles of the pool. We will wait 15 minutes before we determine if it is safe to enter.

Thank you!
