Rotary Park and Pool

Rotary Park reopens summer 2026

Rotary Park is reopening this summer following a major revitalization as part of the City’s centennial legacy project. The renovated park features a new outdoor pool with four lanes, zero-entry pool area, toddler pool, destination playground and splash pad.

In recognition of the pool reopening and its long-standing history in the community, City Council has approved free access to select swimming opportunities for Oshawa residents during the pool’s first summer season. 

Free Rotary Pool Membership for Oshawa residents

Oshawa residents will have the opportunity to enjoy free leisure swimming and swimming lessons at Rotary Pool once the pool opens for the summer.  

A Rotary Pool Membership is required to access these free swimming opportunities. Memberships are free and available to Oshawa residents only.
