New Aquatic and Fitness Center… it offers swim classes and leisure activities. There’s a gym for members and dance classes. It’s a great place for activities especially during the cold months. Im a member there and I definitely recommend.

Great facility for swim lessons. Copious family changing rooms. Separate recreational pool and 50m / 25 yard (depending on the configuration) pool. The county offers swim lessons here through Parks and Rec, and they go pretty well. Also, the facility has exercise equipment and rooms. It does get crowded, which I suppose means it is a success.

We went for the Family Play Time on a week day right when they started at 9am. The metered parking lot was $5.25 for a max of 3 hours and there were plenty of spaces available at that time and when we left shortly after noon. The changing areas were pleasantly surprising compared to the older Rec Center ones I've been in previously. They have Women's and Men's, but also a space for all genders with multiple enclosed changing areas with a toilet and shower. The lockers themselves were spacious and had loops for people to use their own personal lock with. The changing rooms were fantastic for one or two parents bringing multiple children. I felt totally comfortable changing everyone out of their wet swim wear afterwards while keeping an eye on all my kids. The oldest kids were able to use the toilet safely in the room with us while I helped the younger ones out of their gear. While we were all in the private changing area, I didn't have to worry about my kids inadvertently staring at strangers around us changing their clothes. The changing areas all seemed cleaned and well kept for that time of day. One thing to note that the kids found fascinating was a small spin dryer we found on our way out of the locker room. It was only big enough for one suit or a couple small kids suits, and does not dry them completely. Rather it will spin the excess water out while someone holds the top down. We had to allot extra time for several kids to try out the fancy device. The recreation area, while on the smaller side compared to outdoor recreation pools, was fun for all the kids in our group ages 2 through 9. The pool area was fairly empty around 9, but by 10 more family started to come in. The prime time on weekdays seems to be from 10-12. There was still plenty of space for everyone when during those later hours. Every member of our group thoroughly enjoyed our time and would definitely go another time.

Bring your own locker room lock and slippers for locker room/shower areas - the floor is unfinished concrete and pretty gross. For a top notch swim facility the locker rooms and shower leave much to be desired. Pool is nice, lots of extras for kids from baby to early teens and competitive swimmers, but on a Sunday evening for family swim it was a madhouse and incredibly crowded. Lots of parents sitting on the sideline with bags and towels watching their kids swim. Vigilant lifeguards emptied the pool when someone “went to the bathroom” in the water.

What's usually a good time to use pool areas?

Wayne Ware | May 11, 2022
John Paul Giza | May 11, 2022

It honestly depends. In the afternoon 3-8 AAC takes up more than half the pool. Maybe early in the morning or around noon. Overall during the week the pool isn’t too crowded.

The temperature in the Jacuzzi is somewhat low. Apparently 97 - 98. Shouldn't it be a few degrees higher ?

Likely no for insurance reasons

Yes there is a lazy river inside the pool. Pretty cool

How much is parking at the aquatics center for an hour (for swim lessons for the kids)? We drove by on a Sunday and it’s free then, but curious when classes start in mid-Sept.

Spoke to the front desk today (9/12/21) and they said parking is free after 5pm on weekdays for swim classes.
