Belen Eagles Natatorium

SHHHH…Don’t Tell Anybody! 😊 Ok…I’m a swimmer, but do not (sadly!) have a lap pool at my home. So, in efforts to get into/ stay in shape as a lady over 50, I visit a few pools in the areas of Albuquerque and south as far as Belen for lap swimming and open swim time with my family. Now, I love the sunshine here in New Mexico, so outdoor swimming is my favorite. This pool opened for outdoor swimming in mid-June and it was so worth the wait. Located within the huge campus of Belen High School, there is ample parking. There are swim sessions for laps, as well as open swim time in the afternoons and early evenings. The office staff are all over 21– pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. The cost isn’t bad, a couple of bucks. The office and female locker/shower rooms are spotless in

So the Belen School Board wants to close the outdoor pool? What is with these people? I guess this is Belen doing what Belen does best, keeping the city down while Los Lunas continues to grow. That's why nobody stays, and why Main Street has more closed shops than open ones.

It was big, wood paneling looks exquisite. Very satisfying floor acoustics. Echo effect was on point. Seats are comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Floor was slightly springy, not to slippery, but mostly hard. The entire building had pretty good heating, but feet get cold to easily, almost as if shoes are required. Great natural light allowed in through windows. The other lights were bright, while still remaining warm. The vending machines had limited selection, but were stocked and reasonably priced. 5 stars. 5 thumbs up. 5 gold chains. 5 golden rings. 1 Abraham Lincoln.

I have never been to the Belen High Pool, it was well worth it The kids enjoyed it had lots of fun The staff was very friendly and kind and took time to educate me, explain there sessions, time change, passes and show the grounds. I was amazed I had no idea they also had an outdoor Pool. Thank you.

Great employees except for one heavy set male with beard kicks people stuff as he walks next to the pool I'm guessing hes a life guard or warden no need to intimidate the people
