Part 2, Reason #7 in a new series I decided to launch last week. This week I am highlighting two of the towns great assets. The Dover indoor pool and the Jenny Thompson outdoor pool.
The Dover Indoor Pool is a 25-yard 6-lane pool located in downtown Dover off of Henry Law Avenue. With an average water temperature of 81 degrees, the Indoor Pool is used for a wide range of activities including lap swim, therapy swim, lessons, competitive swimming, scuba classes, birthday parties and aqua-aerobics. The dive well, which features a 1-meter diving board, is used primarily for diving instruction and recreational swimming, including treading water, water jogging and deep water swim instruction.
The Jenny Thompson Outdoor Pool is a 50-meter competition pool located on Portland Avenue next to the Dover Ice Arena. This pool is mainly used for competitive and recreational swimming as well as occasional lessons during the summer. The Jenny Thompson pool is a favorite destination of many summer camps during the hot summer months as the pool also has a large grassy area for kids to play on. Opening near the end of June, the Jenny Thompson Pool hosts many regional swim meets during the summer including USA Swimming sanctioned meets. The Jenny Thompson pool is a wonderful place to spend those hot summer days.
Both pool are a great asset to the City, and offer opportunities for families to cool off on warm summer days. I invite you to come visit one, or both of the pools sometime. I'm sure you will enjoy!
