Summer Pool deals for the family!



My husband and I were going to go Seven Peaks yesterday after he got off work, and we found this deal. If you bring in one 5 Buck Pizza boxtop you can get up to two passes into the park after 5 PM for $5 each. (The regular half day pass is $12 and that starts at 4 PM- but where this starts at 5 PM after the $5 pizza, and the two passes- it's still MUCH cheaper than the regular half day pass, and you have dinner for the evening, and it only starts 1 hour later, which works better for my husbands work schedule anyway.) You can get as many admissions as you have pizza boxes for the $5 price if you had a bigger family.

Like I said my husband and I WERE going to go, but then we had a friend bail on us, and we wanted to go another time when more people could go with us- so we looked at other even cheaper options. Here's what we found.

The Scera pool in Orem is usually $5 for adults, $4 for kids 4-13 and $1 for kids 1-3. At 6 PM they offer half off on their admission prices- a pretty good deal since they are open until 9PM.

Veterans pool doesn't offer any evening discounts, BUT they do let you in for FREE the last 45 minute so of the day- which is 7:15 M-Th and 5:15 Friday and Saturday.

We got our 5 buck pizza, went to the park right by Veterans Pool, played there and ate our food. (Which by the way- 5 buck pizza is REALLY good! I don't know why I had bad thoughts towards it before, but it was fantastic. You can get so many toppings on your medium pizza and it still costs $5) Then at 7 we went and changed and they let us in at 7:15. It was still hot enough that it wasn't too cold, and 45 minutes is the perfect amount of time in the water for our 1 year old. He had a lot of fun, but probably wouldn't have stayed much longer. We are definitely going to do it again- as we had so much fun- and for free!

  1. If you want don't mind traveling a little ways, here's the Payson pool page: http://www.payson.org/parks_rec.pool.html Click on pool pricing. It's very reasonable if you're in the area: $1 for 0-3 (includes swim diaper), $4 for 4-54 years of age...etc. It's only one year old and our family has had tons of fun there! There are lots of shallow areas for little kids too. Kids under 4 MUST have a swim diaper and plastic swim pants. Don't forget those because they'll make you buy the swim pants for $7.00 and the swim diaper for $1 if you do. Anyway, I thought I'd let you know
