Take a dip for free at the opening of our summer pools

Summer is nearly here so grab your togs and submerge yourself in one of Hutt City Council’s three summer pools.

To celebrate we’re treating everyone to a free swim on the day the pools open: Wainuiomata Pool on Saturday 6 November, Eastbourne Pool on Saturday 13 November and McKenzie Pool on Saturday 20 November.

Mayor-elect Ray Wallace says the free open days are a great family day out.

“There’s nothing like a swim to cool down when the weather heats up and with six pools open across Lower Hutt during summer we’re spoilt for choice,” he says.

Full day summer pool entry is $2.50 for under-16s and over-60s, and $4 for an adult swim. Swim memberships, at just $9 a week, are also available which make it cheaper for regular-pool goers.
