What parents say
"Went to the Genesee Valley Sports Complex pool today and it was most excellent! It costs $1 for children and $3 for adults. A season pass is $20 so it pays for itself if you go more than 6 times. They had extended hours for open swim once the Cool Sweep was declared. Lockers are available but you have to bring your own lock. There are several lifeguards and security guards around the grounds to make sure all attendees are safe. The changing area is modern and has ample room for privacy. The pool itself is gorgeous and I like that there is even a water slide! This is such a wonderful thing to h"
