From the reviews
…We love the programs, the pools, and the indoor track! Staff are all very friendly and professional
…I’m excited to start using the track, I barely found out this was free to us! So far I like it. Not too packed and everyone here says “good morning” whether they work here or not. Update: Also Dave L and Daniel aka “Danny” were also employees here that gave me a great first time experience.
I recently started to use the indoor track and it's wonderful, especially when the weather is bad! It's a great way to get motivated with others to start exercising!
