Cool Off at Water Works Swim Club August 14-15

Edwardsville’s Water Works Swim Club is offering everyone a chance to cool off this weekend.

The Club is hosting a free Community Open House from noon to 8 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 14 and Aug. 15.

Board member Cathy Hensley said everyone is invited to attend. She said the open house will offer everyone a chance to enjoy the facility and swim for free during the last weekend before the Edwardsville School District resumes classes.

The club asks that children 17 and younger be accompanied by an adult and all guests sign in upon entry.

Water Works Swim Club, formerly known as Montclaire Pool, has been serving the community since 1957.

Hensley said the club tries to have an open house event every so often. She said many people do not realize the pool’s membership is open to everyone in the community.

“It is close and affordable,” Hensley said.

Water Works Swim Club is located at 401 Harvard Dr. in Edwardsville. It offers memberships for single residents and families.
