Aquatics
Dive into fun and fitness! At the Ashland Family YMCA, we believe that water activities are not just a source of fun, but also a pathway to health, confidence, and lifelong skills. Our Aquatics Center offers a wide range of programs and facilities for all ages and skill levels.
The Meese Family Aquatic Center features a 45’ x 75’ pool with 3’ to 9’ depths and an attached 20’ x 20’ alcove that is 3’ feet deep. Our warm saline pool is set at a temperature ideal for children and seniors. The UV filtration system reduces chlorine and makes the pool and aquatic center cleaner and healthier. Hydraulic lift chairs are available. Children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult or enrolled in a supervised program while at the YMCA. Non- swimming children must be accompanied by an adult member or wear a life jacket in the pool.
