The City of Edmonton offers four outdoor pools and numerous spray parks for cooling down on hot summer days.

Two community leagues, Elmwood Park and Alberta Avenue, are diving in with memberships that provide free access to all outdoor pools. Local residents, as well as those living outside the community borders, are eligible for membership.

Elmwood Park Community League offers a free membership, while the Alberta Avenue Community League membership is $20 for families or $10 for individuals.

Said Melanie Spitzer, Elmwood Park Community League president, “It’s important to us that families can have fun in a way that is inexpensive or free. All ages love pools and spray parks. My father down to my toddler love playing in the water.”
