Still a wonderful facility, but their check in and registration is a complete joke and it's normal…read moreto wait 10 minutes or more just to pay for drop in swimming. No separate lines organized for people registering for programs, vs those who are just in for a drop in. It's normal for all staff to be occupied with mothers who are deciding on which sports programs to enrol their family in.

Cassie Campbell, or better known as the Wellness Centre's twin…read more The reason I say that is because the layout for both of them is basically identical. However, perhaps because it is newer, Cassie Campbell is a little nicer. What I like about it is the giant glass walls that allow you to see outside. It really makes the place seem bigger and non-claustorphobic. The layout of the gym consists of all the workout equipment in the centre, and a track circling around, with the corners available for stretching exercises. Basically every piece of equipment one could need is here, and then some. The membership fees are reasonable. I bought a month pass which is only $40 if you are a student, otherwise its closer to $50. For a one time pass it's $7 for a student and closer to $10 if you are not a student. There are also a lot of other activities and classes since it's a community centre; however, I can only comment on the gym part since that's all I really used. If you are looking for a place to workout, I recommend at least trying out this gym, you might end up loving it. Warning, depending on which side you come from on Chinguacousy you may have to pull a U-Turn to get inside the parking lot lol. . . but bonus though, if you buy a pass to any Brampton city gym, you gain access to all their gyms.

Cool summer camp is an excellent place to send our children. Unlike, other camps they don't have…read moreteenagers as their camp Counsellors . Rather, they hire professional and ECA, ECE certified teachers. The owner herself take the pain to know each and every children's need. I went to one of their field outing with my son and ensured their attention to each and every student.

I sent my kid to this camp in hope that they are good, reading reviews about them. It was a last…read moreminute call, since I was already late for summer camps. And had to take him out in few days. In few words, Its a child care where teachers are hired once a year ( When the summer camps runs). They are picked randomly, mostly without proper training about handling kids. For younger kids it can be quite a decision for mothers, as this can account for safety. Children have free access to television. I would day, one of their days curriculum is watching movie. The owner justifies this by saying those are interactive play/ education etc. but primarily these are children movie. It is played so that children can spend time watching them , so as free the teachers from their responsibilities of child care. Less attention is given to the kids for food, play, etc. They are primarily on their own . The owner talks about passion about childcare education and all. You can see her doing all this while parents are around,. But really this is just a way to earn money. We went to one of the day trips with them. While traveling in the bus, a small girl probably 4- 5 years old, slept and fell from the bus seat. She hit her head , but was okay, as teachers sitting in the near by seats came rushing. There was no teacher sitting with her or on her seat for assistance. They were sitting with other teachers. It was sad. We tried to complain, but the owner has her own excuses. I would recommend not to send your kids to the summer camp. Its unsafe, with the owner having little response from these small accidents. Today, these accidents seems small, but big things can happen as well. So, Please avoid sending kids to this summer camp. Its for their safety. As the response to the Business owners' comments I have the following to say.: Parents can very well go there and see what is right and what is wrong. It was only a review to help parents. And definitely , it is the parents discretion , what they perceive right and wrong. This is what I felt as a parent, when I sent my kid to this summer camp. I hope the review helps. Business owners don't like negative comments .. however, Parents should write what they think is right, whether positive or negative review..Its helps us to know and guide in parent hood.

This is my second time visiting. The first time I went, the staff was a little rude but the…read moreexperience was wonderful. A 1 hour horse ride through the trail where you get full reigns of your horse and even do a little galloping on the ride! On my most recent visit, the staff were very very friendly and helpful! Its under new management and I definitely noticed a difference. A special shout out to the staff member (I forgot her name) who has the long eyelashes and is super funny! On weekdays the ride is $35 per person and the staff pair you with a horse that you would be a good match with. The trail is tranquil and scenic, however make sure you wear repellent because mosquitoes are ruthless (no surprise there). 10/10 recommend. Its a nice break from the city and the horses are super calm and friendly. Side note: I had "Honey" and she is featured in Anne of Green Gables and Handmaids Tale! I'll get her autograph next time.

Good experience with the horses despite the hot weather. The staff were amazing and friendly to all…read moremy friends as we booked as a group of over 15 people. They chose horses that match the rider and it worked out great. Don't expect to gallop as this was a basic ride along a trail on their ranch. The staff taught us how to ride and at times we needed to avoid the horses in front making a wc stop along the trail. The horses were good sports letting us ride in the heat but we needed them to keep focus by pulling their head up to avoid stopping to eat grass. As a bonus for a large group, the ranch provided an exclusive area for us to hold a bbq picnic. A good friend brought the grill and we had a delicious meal with burgers, corn and mushrooms. Definitely would recommend the branch for beginners. Will try to find another ride where we can gallop.

This is a bit of an older centre, but could still merit 4 stars since it has a few things going for…read moreit: a warm kiddie/family pool, squash courts, multipurpose rooms available to rent (and you can rent the pool itself for parties), and a few other things. But what bothers me about this place are some of the patrons, and the lack of action on behalf of staff. My son has been coming here for lessons a couple weeks now, and it's common to see several parents walking through the showers and onto the pool deck with outdoor shoes on. You can literally see dirty water form whenever someone does this, and that's going in the pool or what your showing amongst. It's sad that it's not common knowledge and practice for all people to avoid this, but the facility also has a responsibility to post signs and enforce these rules. Both times I've spoken with staff, they agree with me but never acknowledge that they will do something about it and try to pass responsibility. (I.e. "talk to someone else). It speaks to the culture of this particular centre, as there's other city run facilities which don't have this issue. Please Loafer's Lake: address this.
