indoor pool

Paradise Salon Spa and Wellness in Carson City is excited to announce new aquatic circuit classes using an array of underwater equipment including treadmills, bikes, trampolines, arm bikes, and shoulder machines. Take one of these classes Thursday through Saturday and discover how wonderful it is to get a full-body workout in the water today.

The Carson City Aquatic Facility will have the main 50 Meter indoor pool closed on Wednesday, August 21 from 8 a.m. to noon for a pump repair.

Summer is a time for ice cream, bike rides, carnivals, and of course, swimming. However, there is a shortage of lifeguards nationwide so extreme that pool programs are in jeopardy of shutting down.

“We are a part of the aquatic community that is suffering right now,” said Mike Freeman, Recreation Program Manager at the Carson City Aquatics Center.
