Facility Notes
The outdoor pool's laned section is used principally, but not exclusively, for lap swimming. Kickboards, pull buoys, and flotation belts are available.
The outdoor pool also has a children's play section with a mushroom fountain and corck-screw water slide. The connection between the two pools is a very small section near the ends. It's an unusual set-up.

This Y is terrific: two, speed-organized, 25-yard pools (one indoors, one outdoors), free for members of other Ys.

The lanes are narrow, but most of the swimmers are pretty experienced. The water is heated, and there are two pools (one indoor, one outdoor), so at least there is a good selection of lanes and environments. I guess the only thing that's prohibitive about this place is that you have to be a YMCA member (which is somewhat pricey), and the hours are somewhat regulated as the pool is sometimes reserved for swim teams, lessons, and water aerobics. Other than that, it's a nice facility.
