Eaman Park Pool, located at 123 Eaman Avenue, is Salisbury’s longest running swim club and has served the local community for 65 years! This popular recreational spot is within walking distance of Fulton Heights and serves as a “home away from home” for families throughout Rowan County. Eaman Park Pool is a stock-owned, private swim club that provides its members with pool access from 6:00am-9:00pm daily beginning Memorial Day weekend. Members are required to pay annual dues and to play an active role in the pool community. At Eaman, members enjoy family-friendly events throughout the Summer months including poolside cookouts, ice cream socials, paint and sip events and SO MUCH MORE! The children at Eaman Park Pool develop friendships and memories that last a lifetime. They detach from the screens and spend their days playing Sharks and Minnows, practicing their cannonballs, and enjoying pizza at a picnic table with their friends. Many of these kids grow up and become lifeguards at our pool before returning later with families of their own.
Amenities at Eaman Park Pool include bike racks, men’s and women’s bath houses, keyless entry, first come-first serve pool chairs and picnic tables, diving board and Snack Shack. Certified lifeguards are on duty from 12 noon-6pm daily and children 13 and up, who pass a swim test, are permitted to swim without a parent during lifeguard hours. Our lifeguards also offer swim lessons throughout the Summer at a minimal fee. Current stockholders and new members who join before April 15th will enjoy $25 off their dues for 2021.
