(Rome Floyd Parks and Recreation media release):
Thanks to the generosity of Courtesy Ford of Rome, 400 kids will get a chance to swim for free at the Northside Swim Center this summer by using special swim tokens.
Exactly 100 of the tokens are available while supplies last at our offices at 1 Shorter Avenue. The special blue tokens allow entry to one person to the pool for one day. The tokens available at our offices have a limit of four per family. They must be picked up in person during our regular offices hours of 8:30 to 5:30 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 8:30 to 5 p.m. on Friday.
“We would like to thank Courtesy Ford of Rome for stepping up and sponsoring this program,” Todd Wofford RFPRA Director says. “We hope this allows some children and families to experience the Northside Swim Center. It’s a great facility and a great place to help escape the summer heat.”
Entry rules to the Northside Swim Center still apply, so no children under the age of 12 can enter without an adult.
Other tokens will be passed at special and events throughout the summer. The Northside Swim Center is open daily Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.
