Outdoor Pool FAQ

You do not have to purchase a season pool pass, you may purchase a day pass at any of our outdoor pools. Day passes are $8/youth (ages 3-17), $10/adult (ages 18+), and $35/family (two adults and up to four children). Children ages two and under are free.

For the 2020 season, Monument Valley Pool, and Wilson Ranch Pool will be open. (Please note that Prospect Lake Beach is closed for the summer 2020 season due to renovations by the City of Colorado Springs. Portal Pool will be closed until next season.)

A pool day pass does not give you access to the YMCA's indoor pools.

Yes, individuals and families who are not YMCA members may buy a day pass.

We do not give refunds for inclement weather - please check the forecast and visit ppymca.org/status if you plan on visiting the pools! Pools will close temporarily for any lightning within 8 miles.

Due to the limited capacities set in place by the state of Colorado, and the shortened outdoor pools season, we are only offering day passes for the summer 2020 season.

At Monument Valley Pool the first 110 people in line will be allowed in for each time block. In accordance with the current State of Colorado Public Health Order, our capacity is limited to 110 patrons. 

At Wilson Ranch Pool, the first 175 people in line will be allowed in for each time block. In accordance with the current State of Colorado Public Health Order, our capacity is limited to 175 patrons.

Time blocks allow for one and a half hours of swimming and half an hour for our staff to clean. People in line will be let in on a first-come, first-serve basis at the beginning of each time block. After one and a half hours, everyone will be asked to leave the pool so our staff can do a deep cleaning. After the half hour cleaning, a new time block will begin and new people will be let in. You are welcome to reenter the line for the next time block, but there is no guarantee that your party will be able to reenter the pool.
