Pool Closings

Please check the Goodman Aquatic Center Facebook page and your email before heading to the pool for any closings or schedule changes due to weather or unexpected conditions. See Pool Closing Policies to learn more.

About Memberships & Day Passes
We look forward to spending another summer together with our community at our beautiful facility. Please see the details on our Fees & Registration page for information on attendance during public swim hours (weekends, weekday evenings, and holidays). For all registrations (memberships and day passes), you will sign up through our online registration system. This allows us to communicate with everyone in our community in a timely manner on items such as aquatic center closures, schedule changes, health and safety information, expectations during visits, and more.

We are excited to bring day pass packs to the GAC this summer! With these packs, you can access the pool for a limited number of sessions. These packs are intended for those who may only be able to visit the pool a few times this summer or who have not been members before and are looking to try it out for a reduced fee.

All individuals in our pool community will be expected to know and uphold the expectations of the pool during visits to contribute to the safe, fun, and enriching environment we know and love.  See Policies & General Info page to learn more. We can't wait to see you this summer!

About the Pool
The pool’s six 25-meter lanes make it great for lap swimming, and its zero-depth entry makes it accessible to everyone. When you’re out of the water, the pool’s shaded area and deck chairs offer a great place to lounge with friends and family, while enjoying a variety of delicious concessions available daily.

Our pool has a salt-water generator, making the pool better for the environment and swimmers. This generator allows us to use salt, a natural element found in the earth, as a sanitizing agent instead of relying on large amounts of liquid chlorine. The Goodman Aquatic Center is now home to large solar panels, which help to heat the pool water.

The Goodman Aquatic Center, which is located at 7762 County Road PD, is just 15 minutes from downtown Madison.

Pool Parties
The Goodman Aquatic Center is available for events, including birthday parties, corporate gatherings, and family reunions during open swim hours. See Pool Party Info & Request page to learn more.
