Each of the sport pools have designated blocks of time for lap swimming. Usually, early in the morning, for example, the pools are open for lap swimming for at least two hours. The swimmers usually line up at about 6:45 to get in line for swimming, and the doors open at 7. At the newer pools like Eisenhauer, the lanes are narrow so people don't share. The older pools like Mulberry and Laurel Manor have wider lanes, and you can generally find someone to split a lane if you can't get your own lane. Pools generally are crowded early in the morning, not so much later in the day this time of year when its so hot.
