I used to bring my daughter's here when they were toddlers about 30 years ago and now I'm bringing my grandchildren. Also through silver sneakers Im able to take advantage of the facilities which, since they updated are very nice (I dropped my PF gym membership). The pool is awesome and the kids love it Hope to continue coming here for years to come

I am very disappointed with the new summer hours for the AT. I cannot get to the Rec center before 10 or even 11am (I work late, VERY late), and it is only open for walkers using the resistance until 10. I realize that I can still use it after 10, but then I have to duck the playful water hazards and swimmers the whole time. In my opinion there aren't enough kids there to warrant this change. I like to walk for an hour, but since the change, I am the only person doing it and I cant fight the current for that long alone. PLUS the sides of the AT NEED TO BE CLEANED!!!!
