Notes:
|
This YMCA has just finished enlarging its facilities. In addition to the main pool, there is a training pool (about 4f deep) and a spa pool. The Y requires all swimmers to wear swim caps, which may be purchased there. There are two sets of locker rooms: downstairs for kids and families, also useful for the handicapped, as they're on the pool deck level; upstairs for adults (>14) only.

Reviews:
|
Rating: 8 of 10. Always chilly but light and clean ozone filtered pool. Moderately heavily used (mainly between 5 and 7 P.M.) but evenings and weekends can be very quiet. Always set up for lap swimming. The lap pool is TOOOO cold!
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.
