Aquatics

 

The indoor pool at the Family Activity Center has become extremely popular with our members and visitors.  The 8 lane 25 yard pool is perfect for exercising or some watery fun.  The depths range from four feet to eleven feet at the diving end.  The pool area features a diving board and ample lounging chairs. 

For the smaller children there is a children's pool in the same area.  The depths here are two feet to three feet six inches.
Connected to this pool is a fiberglass Frog Slide!  Children enter the pool by sliding down the frog's tongue.
