All the teachers from the preschool stand around talking trash about everyone else in the PUBLIC PARK. Maybe build your own playground if you don’t want children interacting with your students, again in a PUBLIC PARK.

This place is rediculous. I mean I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering it's Essex. the town of rediculous rules. I am a very experienced swimmer and can float so I'm basically incapable of drowning. I brought my mermaid tail to wow the children and the stupid lifeguard had to be a kill joy and ruin the magic by making me not use it. I am highly experienced using this as well. This place doesn't allow diving rings, goggles, snorkels, any kind of flotation device besides perhaps a life jacket. It's pathetic. If I wanted to just spend time in a vat of water and do nothing I would sit in my bath tub. Pathetic. Don't waste your money to come here. If you really wanna go get in with a friends pass so you don't pay for disappointment.

Essex Junction keeps a large, well maintained public park. Multiple pavilions that can be reserved for parties. Permanent charcoal grills. Multiple jungle gyms for the children of all ages with swings. A skate park for skate boarders, scooters, blades, and bikes. Two bike paths for bmx/ mountain bikes. Public bathrooms. Public pool (summer passes get early access) with a kids and adult pool, waterslide, two diving boards, and changing rooms and bathrooms. There is a snack bar with the basics... popcorn, chips, candy, water, soft drinks, etc.
