The operating season and daily hours for the Aliso Viejo Aquatic Center will be extended beginning in May.
The new season – May 1 to Sept. 30 – adds six weekends. Weekday hours will be shortened and weekend hours will be extended. The changes – based on suggestions from the public and a review of 2009 attendance logs – were approved this week by the City Council.
The city also will offer season passes for adults, $150, and children, $90. Monthly passes are $50 for adults and $30 for children.
The aquatic center first opened in 2009. The facility includes a 25-meter pool, recreation pool, splash pad and toddler wading pool. The center offers fee-based swimming programs, activities, and party rentals.
The council also approved $8,300 to promote the aquatic center among residents and visitors. Nearly half the money will be spent on special holiday events at the pool and on two family events.
There are plans to advertise the center on the city's Web site, and in e-mail blasts, the community calendar and community directories. Fliers will be distributed at special events.
The estimated operating cost for the pool is $173,600, according to a staff report.
The Aquatic Center is at Aliso Creek Road and Glenwood Drive next to the Aliso Viejo Conference Center.

I have to say I enjoyed the pool very much last year. It is a gorgeous setting and the lap pool is fantastic for swimming and excercise.
