"Take a Dip Then Take a Powder"

This beautiful pool and facility is well maintained and has a great locker room area.  We were grateful to have it five minutes from our house during the weekend heatwave.  The entire family enjoys cooling off!  The only thing I don't appreciate about this pool is the policy to empty it of everyone under 18 every 90 minutes!  This obnoxious announcement goes out declaring it time for a 15-minute "adult swim" and ordering all under 18 to go to their towels.  

Now if you bring kids to a pool let's face it, if they have to get out so do you.  For the longest and hottest 15 minutes of my life I contended with two long faced kids while less than a dozen obese adults bobbed in the deep end of the pool --- they didn't even ever break into a swim!  Approximately 20 kids stared longingly into the cool emptiness of the 31/2 foot deep pool the whole time while their parents complained aloud about this unbelievable rule!  I asked three life guards why this rule exists and two simply said, "It's just our policy!" and shrugged their shoulders.  The third life guard stated that the rule exists to make sure children routinely rest for a few minutes and some of the life guards get a bathroom break.   Now that makes sense!  It also might be better received if positioned as a "rest break" not the adult reprieve from ankle bitters that it feels like now!

"Great park and pool"

Eagle Park is a local hangout with all the requisite swings, climbing structures, sand pit with diggers, a fun see-saw and tons of grass for picnics and running around. The play structure area is well shaded which is nice in the summertime.

The pool is a great place to cool off as well.
