I just called today.I think $13- for 1 person to go to the pool is obsessive! With all the kids there,I'd guess the pool is full of urine too! I'll pass.

Nice pool and separate diving well. Two diving boards and two small water slides. 25 yard or 50 meter outdoor pool, depending on lane line configuration. Adult swim Mondays 8 to 9 pm is 50 meters. The only downside is the showers aren't great.

If you care about your children’s safety do not sign them up for any classes. My nephew was sent out into the lobby by himself (completely isolated from anyone else including any adults) after he started crying. He is six years old and this was his first time out since Covid. Parents are told they are not allowed to stay due to Covid. This is completely unacceptable, do not trust your children in the care of these people. This is 100% child endangerment. We have contacted higher ups within the organization and want answers. This was for their karate class.
