I went here last year, and I won’t deny that I had a wonderful experience here. The public pool installation here was enough to handle a large crowd. Regardless of how many people are there, there are still enough room to swim around the pool. If only I could come back here someday I won’t even think twice.
Sometimes you can swim laps in the afternoon if the pool isn’t real crowded also. They set up a lane in the middle for swimmers.
I was wondering when Lasker was opening I didn’t think it was until the 4th. Thanks for the info.
