The Town of Oyster Bay has announced that all Town pools will open for the season beginning on Saturday, June 23rd. Residents looking to get a jumpstart on summer by pre-registering for Town pool passes may visit all facilities at the times listed below.

“The warm, sunny days of summer are just nearly upon us and all residents may start visiting our pools daily beginning Saturday, June 23rd,” Town of Oyster Bay Joseph Supervisor Saladino said. “This year we have many great amenities for our residents, including new pool deck furniture, picnic benches and sunshades. Additionally, last summer we promised our residents that we would unveil new and improved restroom facilities for the 2018 season, and we have delivered on that promise.”

The Town of Oyster Bay operates five pool facilities, including Bethpage Community Park, Marjorie Post Community Park, Plainview-Old Bethpage Community Park, Syosset-Woodbury Community Park, and a saltwater pool at Tappen Beach in Glenwood Landing.

Pool hours from June 23rd through September 3rd will be 11am to 7pm daily, weather permitting.

Pre-registration is available daily and is held from 12pm to 6pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, weekends and holidays at community park pools and from 12pm to 5pm at Tappen Pool.  On Tuesdays and Thursdays, pre-registration is available from 12pm to 7pm at all facilities.  Registration will take place during regular hours of operation once pools open daily.

“In addition to the great new amenities at our facilities, the Town is offering swimming lessons at local pools to members age five and older,” Councilwoman Michele Johnson said. “Pool members ages 6-16 may join a swim team, which provides the opportunity to compete against other Nassau County Municipal Swim Conference teams.”
