Since mcclintock high school opened up i started swimming there. but with this heat its like bath water. I have to pull myself out of the water to cool off after a swim set. I used to go to el dorado to swim. Can anyone recommend a good city pool to go to that has semi cool water?

I swam at the Student Rec Center at ASU at 1:00 today and they had the sprinklers going over the lap lanes.  It was cool and awesome.  I don't know what the rules are for non ASU folks but I think the sundevil swimmasters do their morning work out here.

The pool at Mesquite Groves has been cooler than BJC was on Monday.

I seriously wished I hadn't wore my swim cap because my head got
so hot during parts of that swim. (And it was short. AND I sucked
at it.)

Kiwanis park has an indoor pool, but they have kind of funky hours for lap swimming.  IIRC, Sun - Thurs 7AM-9AM and 5:15PM-8PM, Fri 7AM-8:30AM, Sat 8AM-11AM, Sun no lap swim. 

I usually swim there unless I need to swim during the middle of the day, then I go to McClintock.
