Nobody Does Entertainment Better Than the Salem Family Aquatic Center!By:McKenzie Camp

 Have you ever daydreamed of having a clean and welcoming pool to go to in summer? I know finding community pools that are clean and reliable are hard to find, but there is an unforgettable pool at the Salem Aquatic Center in Salem IL, where your dreams can become reality. Whenever you're wanting to come have some fun with friends or by yourself, you have to head this way!

 This aquatic center is not only great for its pool and slides but also it’s concession bar where you can buy many drinks and snacks, hot or cold, for very cheap. These snacks are perfect for when you get hungry from all the swimming or when you just need a break. Some of their food items are nachos, a wide selection of chips and pizza.

 The fun doesn’t stop there; the aquatic center also has a huge slide, which is included in the price at admission, and two different sized diving boards. These add ons to the pool are absolutely amazing for when you get tired of just swimming. The two diving boards are different sizes which is perfect if you are a little scared of heights and don’t want to go on the tall board.

They also have a kids area so that small kids can join into the fun! This kid area is around 2-3 feet deep and has a small slide and water toys to play with so they can have fun with you! Also there are always at least two lifeguards by this small kids section to insure their safety. Having a kids area can also be perfect for parents who want to swim too but have nowhere to let their kid swim since the waters are too deep.

  We know pools could cause injury if not secured enough;that’s why the Salem Aquatic Center ensures you and any of your friends or families safety with having lifeguards in every place they can be. There are lifeguards on each side of the pools and two on the water slide. They also do rain checks so that you're not in danger by swimming during a storm. The lifeguards will always call out any rule breaks they need to make sure you are safe and secure the whole time you're with them!

  One reason this aquatic center is the best is because it’s built for all ages to have a fun time there! There’s the deep pool for adults or teens who love swimming and a shalllow pool for the kids who are too young to be in deep water. The even better part is that every single different depth and different pool is always clean and well taken care of.
