Beat the heat at a place that's safe and fun for all ages! Let the little ones splash around at the
water playground while your big kids hit the waterslide and diving boards. They'll also love the
underwater music in the lap pool and Mom and Dad will love a great way to cool off for only $6
per person (kids 2 and under free). There are lifeguards on duty so parents can relax, swim laps
in the lap pool, or have fun with the kids.
Activity Pool
This great beach entry family pool is flanked by a shaded lounge chair area, grassy knoll and
picnic area. The 18 inch deep pool features two play structures with continuous spraying water,
slides, water cannons and adjustable sprayers kids can control. Stand under the Tumble Buckets
and you're assured to get soaked with buckets that continuously fill with water to douse anyone
underneath!
Water Slide
Need a little more excitement? Sectioned off from the Activity Pool is a 165-foot spiral water
slide available for kids and adults over 48 inches. National Gold safety Award lifeguards man the
top and bottom for a safe, fun ride into a shallow splash pool.
Instructional Pool
This pool in between the Activity Pool and Competition Pool is a toasty 84 degrees for those
who want to warm up from the chilly waters of the Activity Pool and a reprieve from the
excitement. At just 3.5 feet in depth its main purpose is for swim lessons and therapeutic water
recreation, but kids will like swimming in a deeper pool where they can touch. It also makes for
great games of water basketball with a basketball hoop at the south end of the pool.
50-Meter Competition Pool
Want to move up to the big pool? If you'd like to get in some serious exercise the Olympic-
sized lap pool with underwater music offers swim lanes. But if you just feel like kicking back
and floating, innertubes are offered for a fee and life vests for free for more relaxed water
recreation.
Diving Boards
At the east end of the Competition pool are four diving boards for some extreme fun. With
water temperature maintained at 78-80 degrees diving in has never felt so good! Thrill seekers
can leap from the spring board or choose to conquer the fears from the 14 foot high dive.
Eats and Treats
Sorry, no outside snacks but the snack bar offers food ranging from $.25 - $5 for hot dogs, pizza,
chips, and candy. Kids will love to cool off with an Icee or ice cream treat. Pack your change
because it's cash only.
