Historical February 1984 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
The St. Louis Division of Recreation has swimming pools available for rental time. Your organization is invited to reserve time at our pools. Just $15 per hour will accommodate a group of thirty or less. Larger groups can be scheduled.
It should be noted that physical fitness experts recognize swimming as the safest, most effective way of overall muscle toning. Very few exercises work to tone as many muscles effectively at one time as swimming.
While swimming, the muscles receive just the right amount of resistance from the water.
Many times while performing other forms of exercises, muscles are frequently pulled and strained. Swimming is also thought to be the best form of therapy for people suffering from arthritis or recovering from other injuries.
For information on scheduling time at any of the four pools in operation: Wohl Pool, 1515 N. Kingshighway, 12th & Park Pool, 1410 S. Tucker, Cherokee Pool; 3200 S. Jefferson, West End Pool, 5250 Enright, please call John Anderson at 535-0100.
