The El Cerrito Swim Center had its first splash in 1962 thanks to the residents of El Cerrito who passed a major bond measure that not only built the original pools but also the El Cerrito Community Center and several parks and clubhouses. After more than 30 years of operation, the Swim Center faced imminent closure due to safety issues. Residents of El Cerrito came to the rescue with the passage of Measure A in 2000 which funded a full-scale rebuilding of the El Cerrito Swim Center as it is today. The new Swim Center re-opened in 2004 and this year you are invited to come celebrate its 15 Year Anniversary! This fun event is an opportunity for the community to enjoy the El Cerrito Swim Center free of charge. Bring your family from 11am-4pm to enjoy swimming, games and much more! Bring your lunch (no glass or adult beverages please) and enjoy everything the Swim Center has to offer!
