I'm impressed. They haven't gone out of business yet like it's some it's community not wealthy…read morewealthy people so yeah I don't like the fact that you had to drop in after school. It's like extra freaking school man. You already have the full day of school and then you got the horror of going back to something just like it so I would not recommend even going there. They are just discriminating against all type of sports like pickle like just not pickle ball. I'm like surprised I came with a volleyball volleyball and a full bag of supplies to play with the volleyball so me and my dad were about to play in the gym right and just because they had drop they had no drop in volleyball. They didn't allow us to to play And then they said that we have to register into the system like I'm not going back to this place ever again neither am I going to any community centre like here's the thing I want to go play volleyball but here's the thing that's the only thing they don't allow terrible experience if I could give a zero star I would.

**REVIEW FOR THE VACCINE SITE**…read more Extremely, extremely well set up. Very efficient. Several desks doing their checks and balances. What we appreciated was that the technician SHOWED US what we were getting (this is not the case everywhere). This community centre has nice grounds as well. Looks like a new-ish building. Spotless and great air flow. Lots of open, airy spaces.

I came here for my second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. There's a small parking lot on the west…read moreside of the building and a larger one on the east side. There's plenty of signs indicating that this community centre is indeed a mass vaccination site. There's 2 staff at the entrance to direct people inside. Another staff inside the entrance gives you a coloured sticker to put on your shirt to show which vaccine you'll be receiving (Pfizer or Moderna). Further down another staff gives you a page of COVID-19 screening questions and another with information on the vaccines such as risks of COVID-19, how the vaccines work, vaccine benefits, vaccine ingredients and allergies and side effects. Once entering the main area (hockey rink) another staff will give you a piece of paper with the time you can leave written on it. Yet another staff will let you know which station to go to for the shot. The registered practical nurse asks which arm you prefer the vaccine. After the shot you go to the designated waiting area to sit for 15 minutes. For the most part you're left to sit and wait but I did see someone in uniform (possibly a paramedic) check and engage in conversation with someone waiting. At checkout the staff prints out confirmation that you've received your vaccine and also emails it to you and gives you a sticker. Right before exiting there's an area to take a selfie for getting your COVID-19 vaccine. Have your health care handy since almost every staff you encounter will need to scan it.

Also, there were some outdoor performances. The weather was ok, just too cold I felt. There were lot of volunteers to help out. It was a long lineup for the free popcorn, my kid enjoyed the Lego station so much. The swimming pool has a big dolphin, which also attracted my daughter too. We would like to come for the community activities in the future.

I think I'm going to tear up writing this. Going here is a walk down memory lane. I've been here…read moresince I was a tot. First learned how to float from my dad during "Leisure Swim." Then the Aquaquest classes that were each kid's rite of passage. At one point it became cool to bike here, hang out, and hit up the awesome yellow big kids' slide. Then you stopped coming as a teenager 'cause Wonderland and the beach were cooler. And then one day I came back for the Lane Swim to cure my saaaadd, academia-induced neck pain. I had become an adult. Not much has changed over the years. The giant "Richmond Hill" flag still hangs at the front of the pool. The ceiling here was likely exceptionally high and sunny for '90s standards, and is still impressive today. I *think* the "big kids' slide" is still the same one from childhood and it hasn't aged a day in 20 years. Change rooms are large and clean and let you avoid people. The staff are nice, it doesn't cost a fortune to come here, and their public lane swim hours are good (approx. 11am-1pm and 9-10pm on weekdays, 11-12:30 on weekends). The pool at 25m is standard for a community centre with a generous deep end, the warm pool is equally fun and spacious. My only complaint would be the narrowness of the small lane, and that the hairdryers in the women's washrooms are way too high for the 99% Asian demographic. Guess the town of R-Hill hadn't anticipated this turnout, lawls. 5 stars because this pool was already neat during its day and has kept up beautifully over the years. I've visited other R-Hill pools like the Centennial, where staff are rude a.f., or the Wave Pool, which is fun if you're under 12 and intolerable if you're over. I'll hit up a few more pools before finalizing the verdict, but for now Bayview Hill remains a first-rate spot to get your exercise in.

When you arrive at the change area, you check-in with security to ensure you have booked the correct time slot (cannot have more than 25 skaters at any one time). The change area is separate into 6 tables to slap on your skates and enjoy the well groomed surface. The rink is more a square than the typical recto-oval we are all too familiar with. The organic nature this rink takes on, slight incline from the entrance to the natural obstacle course of bumps adds to the overall feel when enjoying the fresh air as you are doing laps and hit the unsuspecting speed bump to wake you up a bit. The staff are very friendly and love the high tech Zamboni that is deployed at the end of each 45 minute skating interval

Summary: Modern Community Center with gym, pool, cafeteria, free garage parking for 2 hours, plenty…read morescheduled activities for kids and and many-many more Pros: Clean; Modern; I am jew, so I am biased, but that place creates so many jobs and volunteering opportunities; Huge development focus; plenty space to sit and read or work Cons: Parking, drop-off and pick-up on weekends might be a bit chaotic due to big number of programs. Details: I am visiting Lebovic Jewish Community Center once a month. It has a relaxing atmosphere. It has outdoor parking, 2 floors underground garage and 2 floors above ground level. Pool, gym and cafeteria are on the ground level. Many classes and development businesses on 2nd and 3rd floors. I have never been inside the pool, so I do not know much about changing rooms or if they have a sauna. However, pool has big cathedral windows. It looks clean and organized as the rest of the community. They have elevators, escalators and complementary Wifi. Employees and guests are polite and friendly. Overall, it's a great Community Center which is utilized mainly by Jews, but open for anyone else.

It's an icon welcoming newcomers to the area with tentacles seemingly extending out in all directions. Out along Spadina each direction, north and south, and over to the older Chinatown to the east toward George Brown's heritage house. (love the homes around here) Very impressive! The entrance and lobby area are bright and welcoming and lead you into the beautiful vaulted main room with a stage at the east end. Plenty of events go on here, with choirs and locally inspired events happening regularly. Want to be involved and welcomed into the Chinatown community? Try Cecil Community Centre.
