• 2019 HMAC FAQ

As you can imagine the HMAC is a popular destination during the summer and at times maximum capacity may be reached. Due to fire code, the HMAC will halt admission when this occurs, once maximum capacity has subsided admission will continue.

General Admission sales begin at 9 a.m., all sales are final, good for day of purchase only, and refunds will not be issued for unused tickets. . The maximum general admissions per guest is 25 and no refunds will be available for unused tickets.

Rain checks will not be issued unless the aquatic center is closed due to inclement weather. If weather is cold, overcast, rainy and/or windy and attendance is 25 patrons or less, the HMAC will close the lap pool and the remainder of the park will be open.

Additionally, General Admission does not include Mid-Week Dip or Friday Night Lights which may be purchased separately.

In order to receive the resident discount admission price, proof of residency is required.

HMAC strives to educate youth in the development of fundamental swimming skills. Lessons vary depending on the current skill level and age of the student; students must reach the minimum age by the end of the session in which they are enrolled. Please select a class that is based on the conservative side of the student’s skills. Lessons are taught in group, semi-private, or private sessions. 
Registration begins on May 23, 2019.
