About
Hartford City Memorial Pool, located at 1098 W Harrison St, Hartford City, IN 47348, USA, is a public outdoor swimming facility operated by the Hartford City Parks Department. It typically opens seasonally during the summer months, offering a main pool, a diving board, and sometimes features like a wading pool or splash pad for community recreation.
Specific, consistent temperature information for the Hartford City Memorial Pool(s) is not readily available to the public. As an outdoor public swimming facility, its temperature is primarily influenced by ambient weather conditions.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the pool are mixed, with strong positives regarding affordability and amenities, but significant negative feedback concerning staff behavior. Many praise the exceptionally low $1 entry fee for all ages and very reasonable snack prices, highlighting it as a much cheaper alternative to other local pools. Amenities like a diving board and a slide are frequently mentioned, as is the surprising cleanliness of the bathrooms. The community aspect, including support for the entry fee and a generally friendly atmosphere, is also appreciated. However, there are serious complaints about lifeguards, including accusations of them yelling at victims of harassment (for having a pride flag) and, in one instance, a lifeguard allegedly telling a Black individual they couldn't swim due to their race. These incidents lead to strong recommendations against visiting due to perceived disrespectful and unprofessional staff.

StorytimeðŸ¤ðŸ¤ Ok so basically we were in the park next to it and these girls were harassing my friend for having a pride flag and they were throwing sand and dirt at her. Two minutes later the lifeguards came and yelled at us???? Horrible experience would never visit again. Really hope they get some better staff.

I love how the community pulls together and helps pay for the entry fee. Last year it was free all summer, this year only 1$. Must go, slide, diving board and cheap snacks. Everyone seems to be pretty friendly.

Best pool around! 1$ for anyone, adult or child both only a 1$! What the heck. If i goto my town pool(GC) its 13$. Hartford City 3$. A diving board, a kids slide, swimming. Hot lifeguards for nice scenery lol. You cant ask for a better pool. And the snacks are the most reasonable ive seen too. And its always clean and bathrooms are surprisingly the cleanest ive seen in years and with Pre covid pricing. So if you go swimming and need to pay the least you can id try memorial park in Hartford City. #1 pool in north central indiana

One of the life guards were telling me that I couldn’t swim because I was black. I can’t believe that someone would actually say that to me just because of my skin color. Im never going again. I hope whoever runs the pool will find workers with more respect
