Fantastic experience: Children running around unattended by adults playing with the showers. Hanging off the railings and standing on benches in the change room... staff unable or not will to do anything about it. As well as the numours bandaids on the floor and the lockers that are hungry for my change. Family friendly indeed. South oshawas finest. Edit. I'm sorry to the fine pool staff and maintenance team.

Fantastic experience: Great place for a swim on a P.D. day. Not many families, large change rooms with huge lockers that only cost a quarter. Great facility.

Fantastic experience: I used to come to this place all the time. I used to live right beside this place when I rented an apartment right up the street. The vending machines were my salvation. For a few months, I lived solely from sustenance absorbed from overpriced Gatorade and stale Swedish Berries and Wunderbars. The pool here is also amazing. They have three individual sections, if I remember right, but don't quote me on that. One of the sections has a deep, Olympic shaped pool. Olympic shaped, but not sized. It is actually pretty small for a community centre, but this community is supported by people named Ethel and Marjorie, and the pool can be frequently found with arthritis stricken seniors performing slow motion stretching techniques that their daughter in law found on Tumblr and assured them would work. These seniors look like an assortment of semi-roasted marshmallows at a boy scouts sleep over, with the preemie-pink and periwinkle blue bathing caps glistening in the artificial halogen lightening. It can be difficult to drown out the sound of breaking bones, cracking joints, and cursing of daughter-in-laws, emanating from the zombie horde of 85 year old seniors, most of who are seeking more relieve than the over-prescribed OxyContin they secretly take with a 6 oz scotch every morning , can alleviate. Drowning them out can be a challenge, but the super-awesome-when-you-were-younger-but-kinda-sucks-as-an-adult water slide can help distract from the synchronised verbalization of inflammation. The slide looks amazing, made from what I am assuming is some type of fibre glass and plastic polymer. There is water, and it does allow you to slide, so the water slide description is valid. The corkscrew design would accelerate the slider to maximum velocity if it was longer, but two turns just wouldn't do it. Children seem to really love this slide, but they also love under-sized, purple, polyester, singing and dancing dinosaurs, and pieces of bubble-wrap, so you can draw your own conclusions from that. The lack-lustre slide drops you into a shallow pool that seems to be at least 7 degrees warmer than the zombie-hoard excersize pool. I am praying this is due to the proximity to the commercial pool heater, and not due to the expulsion of urine and possibly liquified faecal matter by frightened or untrained children. Beside the drop-off zone of the slide, there is a second pool. It seems to be somewhat square, and quite warm. Again, I am hoping that the heater is close by and very powerful, considering option 2 included human waste.. This pool varies from a very shallow wading pool, and has a slow gradient, eventually becoming deeper. I am assuming this part is for children, because even the deep end remains shallow.. The best part of the pool is the wave circle. I'm not sure what this is called, but it is a circle of water, about 5 feet across, with a solid island in the centre. It has some sort of machine that creates a powerful current, and violently pushes you around the circle, dependant on physical size. I say dependant on size, because I have been pleasantly guided around this circle before, in a pleasant forward motion, with the current creating an artificial masseuse deeply massaging my shoulders and spine. On the other hand, however, I have seen children being violently thrown forward and upward, flying as if Iron Man just landed a perfect shot on them, with his chest-mounted direct energy weapon. Parental supervision is advised. The centre is reasonably priced and staffed with very friendly and helpful people. The pool and the centre in general is very well kept and clean. Actually, I was very impressed with the cleanliness, and the upbeat vibe of the place. The centre is attached to a high school, so occasionally you will encounter a pimple-faced teenager with a god complex, but other than that, this is an enjoyable and family-friendly place. Highly recommended. AAAA++++++++++++
