Summertime is here and nothing is better than a dip in a cool swimming pool to beat the heat. Starting at noon May 27, Bossier City public pools will be open!

The summer hours of operations at each pool will be as follows:

Shed Road Community Playfield Pool - 4208 Shed Road

  • Monday through Friday 12 p.m. – 5:45 p.m.
  • Saturday 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.
  • Closed on Sunday

Fort Smith Neighborhood Playfield Pool - 701 Coleman Street

Daily public swim fees are $2 for adults and $1 for children (17 years and under). Individual and family season passes are also available at $35 (per person) or $75 (for up to a family of 4).

Of course not everyone can swim, and it is recommended all kids receive lessons. If anyone in your family needs swimming lessons, four two-week swimming lesson sessions will be offered at the Shed Road pool and Mike Wood pool starting Monday, June 6. The fee for each session is $40. Participants can sign up at either the Shed Road pool or Mike Wood pool. Swimming lesson students are required to be at least 4 years of age. The pools are scheduled to be open for the summer through August 6, 2016.
