Grab your sunscreen and your swimsuits! As the Los Angeles temperature approaches triple digits, what better way to spend lunch on a hot summer day than by taking a cool and relaxing dip in the Plaza Pool?
The Plaza Pool will be open this summer, a convenience for faculty, staff, alumni, students and the public. Individuals who have a membership to the Student Recreation Center can enjoy the Plaza Pool for free. The Plaza Pool is an alternative to the Rec Pool at the new SRC.
For those without a membership to the SRC, you can purchase a day pass to the Plaza Pool for $2 or 10 passes for $18. Faculty, staff and alumni have the added choice of purchasing a summer membership to the SRC for $98, which includes access to the center and the Rec Pool. The discounted rate is good from May 28 through Aug. 25 and is prorated by the day.
The Plaza Pool’s summer hours are Monday through Friday from 7–9 a.m. and 4–7 p.m., May 26 through Aug. 26. The pool is closed weekends, Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Aug. 20–24.
The Plaza Pool is located on the east side of campus in the University Student Union next to the PUB Sports Grill.
Lunch Break is an occasional series about activities on campus that faculty and staff can do during a one-hour timeframe to improve health and wellness.
