Lifeguards?

Rest assured that we put safety first with our team of Red Cross Certified lifeguards stationed at both the pool and quarry, ensuring your well-being at all times. Private swim lessons for children and adults are also available for those looking to hone their skills in the water. Check our calendar on the homepage for lessons this summer!

For the safety of all guests, individuals under the age of 18 must successfully pass the Quarry Swim Test before enjoying the waters.
