Mitchell Hall Pool

A page within Rec Sports

Rec Sports Lifeguards

The Mitchell Hall pool is a 6 lane, 25 yard competitive pool that is used for a variety of activities including classes and competitive collegiate swim meets. Rec Sports operates the pool for open lap swimming.  

Current faculty, staff and students just need to bring their current UWL ID with them to gain access during open hours.

Not a current member of the UWL community? You can purchase a pool guest pass for $6 per day.  Pool guest passes need to be purchased online. You will need to setup a profile, then choose membership, then choose the correct option to purchase. Please make sure to complete the whole process, such as click "Complete Sale" after credit card payment is entered (cash payments are not accepted).  Please visit the Mitchell Hall office (Room 118) to receive your receipt.  To access the pool, you must present your receipt to the lifeguards on duty.
