As far as facilities go, the pool is excellent. There are three pools, one large competition pool that is either short course or long course, a medium warm-up pool, and a small pool for swim lessons. The water is kept around 70 F in the main pool, which is perfect for training. The hours are great, and despite arriving right around opening most mornings (5:30 am), the staff is always friendly and helpful.This facility has also introduced me to what great ecological diversity our great nation has. I have been swimming here for 7 months, and I am quite positive the place has not been cleaned during this time. The locker rooms (women) are particularly interesting. For the exhibitionist in me, I am a huge fan of the broken stall doors-- the world can now be privy to my privy. I have been introduced to 4 different species of insects (cockroaches, fruit flies, a slightly larger fly of undeterminable origin, and ants) and molds. The shower curtains and shower stalls, in particular, have a thriving colony of mold and, with the broken tiles and soap dispensers, appear to have been under flood waters for several weeks. Rumor is they changed the curtains from white to black to better disguise the proliferation of mold, but to no avail. There are also long-term puddles across the entire floor. It is my opinion that if the CDC were aware of this, The National Malaria Eradication Program would be utilized to drain the standing water, and spray insecticides.
