Visited this pool over the weekend to escape the deathly Cincinnati inferno known as July. I…read moreattempted to pay, but was told that there was free admittance all weekend. What a treat! There are no chairs or concessions or really anything... but it was free so whatever. If I had paid anything more than $5 to get in, this would probably be a 3 star review. And since you get what you pay for, I'd say it was a pretty good deal.

I don't think I utilize this center enough- as a CRC or town space, but then again, I'm not sure…read more(minus camps and Zumba I sometimes see on the reader board) what goes on here regularly. Twice I've been for a first time home buyers class and recently a composting seminar. I often have a CRC pass to play volleyball, but the gym here looks a bit too small for that. Sad, as that'd be ultra-convenient. There is a nice green space and playground outside of this town hall. I've also heard a ghost is rumored in the attic. It sounds about right. More than anything here, I love that from my house- blocks away- I can hear the music that comes out of the town hall. I think this structure, idea, and physical space gives me a sense of Westwood, the city's largest neighborhood, and I'm proud to be a part of it. I hope this place becomes more familiar to me in the months to come.

So far so good! It's 2021 and we're slowly recovering from the panorama (yes, panorama lol). Inside…read moredining, theaters, and gyms are opening back up. The McKie Rec Center is no different. I recently moved into the area and heard about the weight room. I paid for a 3 month membership, which was $45 dollars. I believe this includes access to all Cincy rec centers but will need to test that out. The 45 bucks gives me access to the basketball court and the weight room. COVID SAFETY: For now, you have to call and schedule a time to go into either facility. They are keeping the number of people very low so I appreciate that since the weight room is fairly small. You must call and book a time on the hour for the hour. My only complaint is there isn't an online portal or email I can send, I have to call, and if you know me - I HATE calling anyone haha! Oh well. It's a great alternative for me when I'm not feeling like running outside. It's walking distance and opens up at 8am so I can get my morning burn before the day starts. Glad to have it available!

I think the Cinci Recreation Commission facilities are a great benefit to the city and fully…read moresupport their inclusion in the city budget, etc. Unfortunately there are a lot of things competing for the same funds, and certain communities draw the short straw. And, unfortunately, McKie suffers from that. Most of the equipment is old and beat up, but in working order. They are not open weekends, but they are open late enough on weekdays to get in a workout after work. McKie also lacks a few amenities that some of the better funded CRC centers have such as a running track. Now, those are a few of the negatives to get out of the way, and unfortunately they are things the folks at McKie just can't do anything about. Now, the good things. First off the people are really great. Everyone is very friendly, and not because they are looking at you like a walking commission. I have seen people being trained there, but I'm not sure how that is set up, definitely not in a high-pressure way. They have classes in martial arts and I think I've seen some women walking around with yoga mats. And the other big tradeoff for the gently used equipment is that an adult membership is only $25 a YEAR!! A main charge for the center seems to be the programs for area youth. I know there are regular and structured basketball times, and I've seen younger children occupying the front room doing arts and crafts projects. Also, in the summer, McKie hosts a number of day camp activities as well as swimming lessons. The front room also hosts community organizations such as the Community Council and acts as a jumping off point for things like the Great American Cleanup. So, as I mentioned, the CRC community centers are asked to do so many worthwhile things, and do them on a shoestring budget. The only reason I give this a 3 star review here is because if it had a bigger budget, I need room to go to 4 or 5.

This past Sunday it was very busy and it was difficult to even get two chairs together. We snagged one when we arrived then got into the pool. We had to wait until later in the afternoon to get a second chair, but we didn't necessarily mind because we were in the water. I wouldn't necessarily consider this a relaxing place to come- it has a very lively and busy atmosphere. If you are fine with this vibe then definitely come check it out!
