- Shared Use: A time when available open pool space can be shared by all users for independent fitness and casual swimming, splash and play and aquatics programming.
- Limited Use: Busy with scheduled programming, space in the pools will be limited during these swims. Specific areas of the leisure pool, such as the 1.4m depth, may not be available, and a minimum of 2 lanes will be available for lap swimming in the main pool.
- Public Swim: These high energy swims are ideal for families and kids of all ages. The lazy river, waterslide, spray features and diving boards will also be available during these swims. A minimum of 2 lanes will be available for lap swimming in the main pool.
- Family Swim: Ideal for families with young children. The lazy river and spray features will be available during this time.

- Closed for Programs: Due to scheduled program use and very limited space, the leisure pool will be closed during this time.
- Changeover: This transition time in the main pool will be used to set up new lane arrangements for the following swim. Lap swimmers can continue to swim, but should be prepared to briefly pause their workouts and move to new lanes.
