BCYF’s network of community centers and pools offer a wide range of diverse features and programs that are as unique as the neighborhoods they serve.

Summer Pool Procedures

Contact: Boston Centers for Youth and Families

Please read carefully as there are several procedures in place to ensure the safety of pool visitors. 

  • Visitors must create a free membership in our registration system and you will be checked in when you arrive at the pool. We are no longer accepting pre-registration for lap swim or recreational swim at this time.

  • If the pool reaches capacity, visitors will be asked to wait until space is available.

  • Preference will be given to Boston residents.

  • Three children under 12 are allowed per adult. Children under 8 need an adult in the water with them.
