Are we allowed to shower at the changing rooms? Been at Jurong Lake almost every other night. Basically there will be an auto announcement played on speaker 15 mins before the hour slot ends. They'll let you know that you can take the opportunity to refresh yourself. No one chases anyone out or anything, just follow the rules and I think it's all good. Most people would be done swimming in 40mins anyway. Hardly see anyone swimming the full hour. Quote
begleitung Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 In some pools they have a 50 mins countdown huge digital timer. At the end of 50 mins they will blow you out. I mean blow the whistle. Quote

Just now around 1600 at ocbc, there were about in average 2-3 people per lane, with no time limits. for ten entries in a month, you pay $17.60. or else single entry is possible too. Cheaper for 30 or 90 days passes. Quote
