Dear Municipal Pool,…read more Thank you. I love you. See you next year. XOXO, Katherine B What is it that you want from your public pool? I want a fairly cheap entry fee and lots of seating and a decent sized pool. That's all. Highland has this, and more! Parking, shade, a decent bathroom and concessions. You can bring your own food in. Plenty of space for the little ones to play in the two small pools/splash pads. A good diving board for the bigger kids. (The drop slides aren't really drop slides per se, and they are best for shorter kids) A big water slide...that's truly only ok but who cares. A HUGE POOL. With a HUGE DEEP END. No lifejackets in the deep end, and still a large area where your tweens+ can easily touch. Bring a pool friendly throwing item. (no nerf, just light weight stuff that won't hurt if you get bonked. The lifeguards will tell you)

It is super affordable,…read moreright next to the St. Paul police station- (so it feels very safe), plenty of parking, room to do different activities in separate pools, and did I mention the glizzys at the snack bar?! Only $8 for adults and kids under 2 years old are free! There is a couple mandatory 25 min breaks, but it's a good time to grab a bite to eat. The splash pad stays open if you get too hot or for it the little ones that can't sit still for very long! (Like my son lol). Come early if you want a foldable chair for sun bathing, the place fills up very quick, but there's always usually some room in the back grassy area for you to lay down a towel and cozy up with a good book. If you get hungry, run to the snack bar and they've got multiple options for hot dog toppings and even a meal deal with chips and a drink! The staff are always so kind and they also have life jacket rentals for FREE! (with admission) We will absolutely be spending more hot summer days here!

I have 3 children aged 9-13, and we have ended up at 5 different swim instruction locations since…read morethe 13-year-old was 3 or 4. I've found that each school has good things and things they could do better on. This year we found Goldfish. Things we liked: -Super friendly staff -Cute and well decorated place -4-day swim camp that was super easy to get my younger two in at the same time Things that weren't our favorite: -The lanes are a little on the short side - perfect for younger kids, but not great for my taller, older kids. -At other swim training places, I've noticed more hands-on swim correction. Here it was more - acting out the correct swim position. I think both are helpful. Are we returning? We're still deciding.

My son refused to get in the water and rather than saying "ok see you next week, good luck with…read morethat," two ladies at the front desk (a manager and a teacher) took the time to engage him and entice him into the water and get him comfortable. It was so human and so impressive for them to go out of their way like that, I will never go anywhere else for swim lessons. Could not recommend them more highly!

The pool water and the pool area are vey comfortable for the swimmers and the family members waiting. They also have all of the Anne ties you might need such as showers, swim suit swimmers and plenty changing rooms. The one thing I don't love is that they advertise a 30 minute lesson but they don't usually start my daughter's class until about 5-6 min after the start of the hour but and exactly at 30 past the hour. Also, they have between 1-4 kids per plane, so that also limits how much swimming time they actually get. I wish there was more consistency.

We've had a kid in the summer swim sessions (there are three sessions a summer) the past three years. I love it because the teachers are great (I assume they are St. Kate's swim team members), its well organized, the facilities are nice, and the kids learn a ton because they go every day for 2 or 3 weeks rather than once a week for eight to ten weeks, which is what most swim lessons are like. It seems like the learning is stronger with the every day method. I've continued to be extremely pleased with the program, and plan to continue to have a kid as a participant for many summers to come!

I was in the market to get my child enrolled in swim lessons when this ad pulled up on social…read moremedia. We signed our child up and have been pretty happy with the lessons overall. They mentioned that they will do a preview lesson for children (which is free) and you can decide to enroll. What is doesn't say is that children under a certain age are not eligible for the preview lesson. I had called to ask a couple of questions about what to bring and that's when they told me, so I'm glad I didn't find out when I showed up. However, you can still do a tour and look around, so that might be worthwhile if you're considering it. The first day of the lesson was pretty chaotic. They have multiple swim areas and one big family changing room with stalls, so it was a lot of people with stuff everywhere. We were not prepared and had too much stuff with us, so the first lesson was a bit of a challenge (plus it was quite cold out, so we had coats). It was packed in there with few places to sit, so that was part of the challenge. As the weeks have gone on it's been less crowded and we have figured out a good system for changing and getting ready by bringing fewer things, so that has helped. The instructor Anna is really wonderful. We're in a baby/toddler group and she does a fantastic job. She explains everything and the parents are in there with the littles, although it is a little hard to hear at times because of the many groups at once. She is very patient when the babies aren't feeling it and has provided some good feedback to us. The lessons are 30 minutes long and it's a little pricey at more than $25 a lesson. You have to enroll in and pay for a whole semester at a time, which are 9-ish to 14-ish weeks. The groups are small (I think our group is 5 kids) and there seems to be some personal attention during the lesson, so that is a definite benefit. It's lots of cute songs and toys at that age to make it fun and engaging. Overall, my child enjoys his lessons and we are pleased with the quality of the instruction. I would definitely sign him up for another lesson if he is interested. Definitely recommend doing a tour or a preview lesson before signing up just so you know what you're in for.
