Reviews:

The editors: One of the best in-town swimming facilities we've visited. The 50m tank is super. Pool 1 is set for 50 meter lanes Tues., Thurs., & Sat. 0530 to ~1100. Temp. is kept between 78-80ºF. Lots of free parking in the lot.
If you disagree with this review, click HERE. If we can fit your comments into this section, we will - "different strokes for different folks" is particularly applicable to the swimming community.
