Usually I love libraries.... But walking into this Ajax's library inside McLean Community Centre, I…read morejust have this urge to walk right out! This library is on the smallish side but that's totally ok.. since nowadays don't even really borrow or look for a book in the library anymore. But just the deco is so dated here, that's should be fine too since you can say it is cozy and charming... The chairs..the tables... those are just like the one from Honest Ed?! Plywood chairs with no padding... and the small cubicles!! I feel like I am in elementary school with all these furnishings... The good thing though is there are electric outlets readily available..... But do I want to stay here?

Good library to take small children and for quick computer use (i.e., for printing). It's inside…read moreMcLeans Community Centre, an older facility so it's limited by the size. It's almost a secret because it's most often empty and quiet, perhaps ideal for those unable to get work done in bustling, noisy environments like cafes and school study spaces. It's conveniently beside a plaza containing a grocery and inside the same centre as a public pool and gym among other amenities.

Otter Creek Co-Operative Homes Cooperative in Whitby,…read moreOntario ‧ Google review NEW I have had several dealing with this Stacey individual. All the deals have been nothing but unprofessional one sided ignorant and she doesn't know her job . Tried to give me and police a fake notice to stay off property for an accusation made by a member and was not verified or justified . If she did her job and due diligence with me and the police she would have known the truth and that the member has a record of lies and stories . Stacey did this twice to me and refused to discuss matter .she has the I know it all attitude and what's she says goes ask why the turn over of maintenance employees was often . Good luck in there . Here is a copy of the notice . It also invades my privacy asking for a list of my belongings . This is not a coop matter. It's also an invasion of my privacy. Oct 18th the member emailed me to come get my belongings . She stalled for a month and the police decided to go to her door .because she had thrown away and damaged my belongings she panic and went to Stacey to have us stopped she was afraid she would be charged . So Stacey had no idea what the truth was and she again did not verify or do her due diligence. I was not and still have not been notified of what the accusation was Here is the email .

The Town of Ajax puts on Environmental week activites every year and we make it a family tradition to plant trees and pick up trash. They also have a compost give away which is a hit. The tree planting was held across from MacLean community center off Westney Rd. in by Miller's Creek. This year was a good turn out as it ran from 9-1 with plenty of volunteers. We got to plant a variety of trees. The town provides the trees, gloves, water, mulch and a spacious area to plant. The volunteers from the city give everyone a brief tutorial on the proper way to plant a tree and then you are off to the races. An hour later and by that time the kids were more interested in digging for worms and snails so we high-tailed it out fo there to get some treats at Timmy's. Well supported and will plant again next year.

(I called the Lifesaving Society to get the exact date of the submission.) As a result, the next lifesaving society course was not approved. It took me multiple calls to the Lifesaving Society and the City of Whitby. I will not return to the city of Whitby for other courses.

It has a nice-sized pool, large enough locker rooms, hot tubs, and saunas. It has a decent number of rooms in which classes are held and the lobby is pretty nice. I am not a fan of the avid disuse of the lower floor, however: it seems like a waste of space into which expansions could be made. I happen to use the health club- the gym- part of the building the most, so speaking from experience, that is where I'm taking a star off. Though the vast majority of the staff members/personal trainers are amazing people- particularly Leo- many could afford to learn a little more about working with the public. When it comes to equipment and space, there is even more room for improvement, for the health club. Most of the free-weights are pretty old, and despite quasi frequent updates, they are usually only to the machines. This is great for beginners and the elderly members of the health club, who seem to gravitate towards machines, but for the younger/more experienced members of the club that use free-weights and barbells more often, it would be nice to see some new purchases. Also, some more space would be useful, as in the past, the club has gotten rid of some useful equipment in an attempt to make more room. It should be noted that the maintenance staff and the majority of the receptionists are delightful people. I very much like how exceptionally affordable the health club is. A gym membership, personal training, swimming lessons, etc. are all amazingly economically feasible.
