Spend summer at the County pool in Central Park. This 15,255 square feet pool ranges in depth from a shallow beach-like wading area to a six ft. deep end.

Kids and adults can splash into the pool by slipping down a tubular water slide or get drenched under the pool's many funky water fountains.

The pool complex includes an expansive lawn for sunbathing, relaxing, and playing games. There is even a basketball court, playground and food vending machines in the complex.

Infants age 9 to 24 months, toddlers age 24 to 48 months, and children age 3 years and older can learn to swim at the County Pool.
