The Hannibal Aquatic Center opens for the season May 29.

The pool will be open May 29-31 but will be closed June 1-2 due to school still being in session. The pool will reopen June 3 seven days a week.

Pool hours are noon to 6 p.m.

Aquatic Center Director Jenna McDonald said she has been busy training lifeguards to ensure safety. The lifeguards must pass a Red Cross certification test to be able to start the season. “We are excited to open the Aquatic Center this year,” she said. The Aquatic Center didn’t open in 2020 due to an abundance of caution during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sunday, May 30 is Honor Roll Day at Hannibal Aquatic Center. Students going into fourth grade through high school must bring report card showing a B average to Aquatic Center and will receive free admission.

Swim lessons at the Hannibal Aquatic Center begin June 10. The registration deadline is June 7 but registration will close when all 24 slots are filled. Registration may be made online HERE or in the Parks & Rec Office (320 Broadway).

Other activities coming up at the Aquatic Center include other Sunday Funday specials, Mermaid & Shark School and Cardboard Boat Races June 22.
