What do you like about our programs and activities?

Love yoga and pilates classes. Why did you get rid of all the evening ones? There needs to be more at 6:30 pm during the week.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I absolutely love the facility and especially the pool. I enjoy swimming laps and used to swim competitively in high school and later in triathlons locally. I do have a recommendation for you regarding pool etiquette. I was recently there on Memorial Day and it was quite busy so everyone was sharing their lanes as we always do. There was a a lane in front of the life guard chair and I kindly tried multiple times to ask the man swimming if we could share. He wouldn't stop and ignored my request so I entered the lane on one side and he wouldn't move over. He was rude and agitated that I was attempting to talk to him. Fortunately, the gentleman in the next lane had a spot open up as the other swimmer sharing finished, and said to come over as he saw the interaction.

At North Shore Pool this would never be tolerated. In fact they have a sign which states we are to share our lane when it gets busy. I think it needs to be stated for those who have no etiquette or civility. And if a lifeguard on duty sees this they should step in to explain the rules of the pool.
