Spokane Valley’s three public pools will open Saturday for the summer.

All cost $1 per person for open swim sessions, which are generally available seven days a week through August from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and again from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Be sure to check the schedule at each pool, though, since each has blackout dates for organized activities and offer varying times for morning and lunchtime lap swim sessions.

Park Road Pool, 906 N. Park Road, features a water slide called the Plunge. No evening sessions on Wednesdays. Closes for the season on Aug. 17.

Valley Mission Pool, 11123 E. Mission Ave., features water buckets and zero-depth entry pool. No evening sessions during weekdays from June 23 to July 31. Closes for the season on Aug. 23.

Terrace View Pool, 13525 E. 24th Ave., features a lazy river for watery floating relaxation. No evening sessions during weekdays from Aug. 4 to Aug. 28. Closes for the season on Sept. 1.

Swim passes are available for $20, which provide 25 entries to any of the Valley’s pools. Scholarship programs administered by Spokane Valley Partners also are available. Children under 5 are free with a paying adult.
