"WOW! Didn’t think I’d enjoy this campus rec. center. But so glad I joined, the silver sneakers program is great, have many free classes, I have enjoyed the walking track, the shallow pool, jacuzzi, and water aerobics with Beth."

"It's got everything you need to exercise and live a healthier life, no matter your age or baseline abilities. Plus, it's fun to watch the college kids work out and the elementary schoolchildren learn to rock climb or splash around in the pool."

"Very nice facility. Something for everyone. Only bad thing, not enough seating for basketball. I have to use a cane and had nowhere to sit."

"We've been having Kiddo's bday parties here for years. For a group with widely varying kid ages and lots of adults who want to have some fun too, it's a great environment. Parties allow up to 30 people, the pool is wonderfully comfortable and warm, and has great features like a full ramp for chair access, a vortex, a separate one-foot deep section that's great for a parent with an infant or toddler. The "wet classroom" is on the pool deck but with a closing door that makes it easier to safely track small kids, and without concern for changing out of swimsuits during the party just to get cake. There's a door with access to a fenced outdoor patio as well. Seriously the lowest stress party events we've ever had, and everyone loves them. We've also found them to be less expensive and more flexible about invitees than most other kid bday options. Even if we were ever to hit the 30 person limit, it would be easy to pay for the extras on the day, and not expensive (extra 5 or 10 per person?). Can't recommend it highly enough. It's BYO-snacks and drinks, which is affordable and customizable."

"I take my Daughter there and we love it! Super Clean pool and Great Staff"
