Welcome to Westfield Memorial Pool! We hope that you enjoy your stay and are able to take advantage of all we have to offer. 

Features

The complex features 5 pools including the Main Pool at the center of the complex surrounded by the fenced-in Kiddie area which has a Spray Pad with numerous fountains, Training Pool and Kiddie Pool. On the upper deck, there is a two-story double tube Water Slide, Dive Pool with 2 diving boards, and 8 lane Lap Pool. We also feature a snack bar, picnic area, and fenced in playground in the complex. The Men's and Women's rooms have lockers, showers, and changing areas.

There is a "Family Bathroom" with the key located in first aid. Your safety is our first concern. The First Aid station, located across from the manager's office has a First Aid certified lifeguard in it during normal pool hours. We also have an AED on the premises in the event of a cardiac emergency. We ask that you inform the lifeguards or manager immediately of any injuries or emergency situations.
