Updated: 07/06/2020

If there is one fun thing we can do during the summer of 2020, that is swim! Getting some vitamin D after all of this time indoors can really do us some good.

Plano so far has two exciting opportunities for swimming this summer, Jack Carter Pool and The Texas Pool, plus nearly 40 hotel pools for a nice staycation.

Jack Carter Pool

Plano Parks and Recreation is happy to announce the reopening of Jack Carter Pool on June 29 following water park safety guidelines reducing the risk of illness to patrons and employees.

The pool will be open to the public through August 9 and then on weekends only until Labor Day, September 7. Reservations are required. Guests can make reservations for one of three three-hour shifts. Each shift will be limited to 250 people.

Each reservation made is limited to six passes and one shift per day so that everyone has an opportunity to enjoy the water park. Members need to bring their membership card. Non-members will be charged the applicable daily fee at the gate, $5 youth (3-15), $9 adults (16+). Everyone in your reservation must check into the pool at the same time.

The Texas Pool

The Texas Pool is planning to open its 2020 swimming season June 16. Members are welcome to swim at the pool at any time, while non-members can drop in for a fee when space allows.

The historic Texas Pool is 168,000 gallons of saltwater shaped like the great State of Texas. The pool features a diving board, two water slides, and an island with a shallow “South Texas” wading area for small children and parents.  There are picnic tables and a beach volleyball court. Coolers with food and nonalcoholic drinks are welcome.

Members‘ guests will pay a $5/person guest fee. Tourists and visitors are $10 per person (adult or child) and babies (2 and under) swim free.  Visitor entry will be dependent on space available under COVID-19 guidelines.
