Milton's public outdoor pool, Rotary Pool, is set to open this weekend. It will be a fun way to cool off this summer.

From June 24-28, the pool will operate with modified hours and be open daily starting June 29.

This summer, the pool is cashless. Guests are encouraged to pre-register and pay online at Milton.ca/Swimming for fun swims, length swims, play pool swims, and aquafit classes. Residents can also pay onsite via debit or credit card.

Located at 100 Garden Lane, the pool features a lap pool and a beach entry pool with spray features.

Residents can also beat the heat this summer by visiting Milton's community splash pads, which are open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
