Cool off this summer at one of our city’s outdoor pools for free during open play swim sessions.
All of Portland Parks and Recreation’s outdoor pools are offering free open play swim sessions this summer.
No registration is required to swim. Free admission is available on a first come, first served basis and subject to daily staffing.
