Dog Swim looked a little different this year. We had 24 pups come through to celebrate the end of another pool season, and we were so happy to see all those happy faces and wagging tails!

But there was one very special pup we sure missed this year — Harley. ❤️ Harley unexpectedly passed away earlier this year, and she had been here every year of Dog Swim! Her absence was definitely felt, and we’ll always cherish the memories of seeing her enjoy this special day each summer. Nicki Petersen Ranney

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out, brought their pups, and supported our Dog Swim! We love ending the season with our four-legged friends.

The family of Ayzlee McCarthy generously donated a Square payment system to our pool at the beginning of this season, allowing us to accept card payments for admissions, concessions, and more.

We are incredibly grateful for this thoughtful gift and for their continued support of our community. Thank you for helping keep Ayzlee’s memory alive in a place she loved so much. ❤️
