Petersburg’s public swimming pool located at 1216 Farmer Street will open for the season on May 27. The pool will remain open through May 29, from 12:00 pm to 6:00 pm each day for the holiday weekend.


“This is the first time since COVID that the City has been able to open the pool on time,” said Marquis Allen, Director of Petersburg Recreation and Special Events. “We are pleased to offer a full season of swimming for our citizens, especially our youth.”
