Clifton Park Town Pools
Clifton Park Town Pools

The Town of Clifton Park is happy to offer three beautiful municipal pools in the Clifton Park community, which have hosted thousands of families for over 30 years. The pools are used for recreational, athletic and social events for all ages. They provide a fun and happy place for meeting and making friends. All the pools offer a large main pool, a diving area, a separate “kiddy” pool for young children. Locust Lane Pool offers a flume slide, and Barney Road and Country Knolls pools offer a 3-meter diving board.

A pool membership includes unlimited visits to all three facilities, all season long.

Pool Locations:
Locust Lane Pool (5 Locust Lane, Clifton Park NY 12065) 
Barney Road Pool (1 Barney Road, Clifton Park NY 12065)

ALL POOLS ARE OPEN DAILY FROM NOON - 8:00PM.  Please visit CliftonPark.org or Facebook (Clifton Park - Town Pools) for weather and holiday updates.

Pools MAY close early on July 4th.

Aqua Zumba®
Aqua Zumba®

Aqua Zumba® blends the Zumba® philosophy with water resistance, for one pool party you shouldn’t miss! There is less impact on your joints during an Aqua Zumba® class so you can really let loose. Water creates natural resistance, which means every step is more challenging and helps tone your muscles. Bring a towel and water (optional water shoes/sneakers).

Anna Rivelo (instructor) has been teaching fitness classes since 1991 when she got certified as a group fitness instructor through American Council on Exercise and Aerobics & Fitness Association of America. Anna has been teaching Zumba since 2007, when she got her Zumba license.
