Silver Falls Family Y/Silverton Community Pool


The Silverton Community Pool is staffed by friendly, certified lifeguards and our experienced instructors teach lessons using the YMCA of the USA’s Swim Lesson Guidelines.   Stop by and take a dip in our heated pool.  We are open year-round and keep our water temperature at a comfortable 84-85 degrees!  In addition, our pools are home to a wide variety of aqua-fitness classes, leisure and open swim times, lap swimming and family swim times.


Location

The Silverton Community Swimming Pool is located at 601 Miller Street.  The pool is open to the public all year round.  The pool was completely upgraded in 2001 with a pool cover that has allowed the pool to be open through the Winter.  Pool amenities include a slide, diving board, full ADA access, and a separate children’s pool.
