Always a great swim and great picnic table to work and still see my kiddos safe while swimming! Also great baseball field for my boy when he plays there!
This is mostly about the pool, particularly the outdoor pool open the summertime, but also the indoor pool. I do not make use of gym facilities or other programs there, but I they seem to be fine and I never hear anything but positive comments about them. The outdoor pool itself could do with better filtration and bottom cleaning toward the end of Summer but it is not bad earlier in the season. The indoor pool is much cleaner as it is used by far fewer people and a very nice option to have if the outdoor pool is particularly crowded, if you are getting over a sunburn, or if you don't want to deal with sunscreen on a blazing hot, sunny day. Also, it is open year-round! I have also added some aerial photos showing the entire facility, including ballfield and tennis courts.
Great facility for kids and families. You don’t have to be Jewish to go there. The outdoor pool and snack shack are great. I like to pull a chair into the shade and work on my laptop. The new Executive Director cares about everyone who walks through the door and is an active listener. I like to donate to them because I can actually see where the money is being used. It’s refreshing and I feel like I’m supporting the community.
Hands down the very best community center I have ever belonged to. I love the people, the events and all of the cool equipment. Definitely recommend.
I love the J but I am so unimpressed with the membership system. I have been trying to cancel my membership for literally 11 months, while my emails go unanswered and I continue to be charged every month. If I ever get out of this membership I’m never renewing it. Nice facility but seems like they are more concerned with taking my money than they are in customer service.
