The swim report
Sep. 18th, 2011 03:02 pmI tried out a new pool with a new instructor today and neither was thrilling. Ballard. I was not crazy about the class time, either so I'm thinking this will not be part of the regular schedule.
Each pool has pros and cons but, I think, I've decided that the one closest to me and easiest to get to, is the best. This may mean that I take some classes in the evenings. Not my first choice but probably wouldn't kill me, either.
Ballard
ok pool
Sunday class one of 3 going on at one time
locker room tight
way crowded after
fair amount of traffic going and coming
class size good
parking easy
good stoppage nearby (in case I need errands done)
Evans (Greenwood)
small pool
pool really crowded
locker room crowded
no parking
not easy to get to
no easy errand opps
excellent schedule of the classes I want
Meadowbrook
nice, big pool
roomy locker room
easy parking
pretty easy getting there but it's a long way
easy errands
Madison
pretty much same report as Meadowbrook
Medgar Evars
closest
roomy locker room
pool not crowded
not enough good classes at the times I like to take 'em
parking easy
Queen Ann

no parking
great schedule
