OUTDOOR CENTER CHECK-IN:
All members can conveniently check in at the Outdoor Center Pool facilities with their membership card and do not need to enter the main facility (Bedford Family Center).
NEW WAIT LIST PROCESS:
Please note, during peak hours there may be longer wait times to enter our outdoor pool. To join the waitlist, check-in upon arrival and request a pager to receive a notification once space becomes available.
While you wait, we encourage you to explore additional Outdoor Center amenities and activities like our playgrounds, basketball courts, sports field, gaga pit, walking trails, and waterfront activities including canoes and paddle boats at Lee’s Pond (available on the weekends beginning June 22, 2024).
The Bedford Family Center also offers plenty of excitement indoors. Take advantage of our indoor pool, splash pad, basketball court, wellness center, and more!
