It was our first time visiting the East Lansing Family Aquatic Center. I was with some family from…read moreout of town so we needed a place to take the kids to burn off some steam. Sounds like a great spot right? Right! Unassuming from the outside, it was all business and professional courtesy once you entered through the gates. Here's the thing with aquatic centers. Lifeguards are paramount! We can all imagine a scenario when security and lifeguards are lacking, so to see it in action was incredibly impressive. On the day we went - near the end of our stay, we witnessed an episode where all the whistles blew, lifeguards stood up at their stations and pointed to the spot where someone was struggling in the water. In a matter of seconds, lifeguards converged and basically took care of business. Now these are late teens to early twenty-something kids. And to see this type of urgency, and trained behavior for the safety and security of their patrons was, well - encouraging to say the least. Once we got home it was decided that, based on our first experience, this won't be our last trip to the East Lansing Family Aquatic Center. Well done staff! You came through with stars!

I had to have it checked to prove there was power. No further communication from them. I had an attorney write them a letter and they offered to pay $150 for the light. I agreed and of course, they've never submitted the payment. Companies that don't stand behind their work are not to be trusted, in my view.

They won't allow me to juggle my soccer ball in the new gym. Great design, great leadership.read more

I have worked here for over 4 years, and as a kid I came every summer to take swim lessons and have…read morefun at open swim. It is the cleanest, safest, and most welcoming pools in the area. Yes, there are strict rules. But that's why it hasn't had a single drowning incident in its 60+ years of being in business. Yes, as a kid I was forced to refrain from splashing and horsing around. But that's why everyone who's came has been unharmed and had to use their imagination if they wanted to play. Yes, I wasn't able to rely a life jacket or another aid (even though that never applied to me nor lots of other kids because I took swimming lessons with wonderful instructors). But that made sure a parent was always with me and I wouldn't go past where I couldn't touch. Yes, the pool director can seem "intimidating" and "unfair" sometimes. But growing up with her as the director and having her as my first boss, it's very clear that every action she takes is in the best interest in the safety and well being of ALL patrons of all different types. Including those with special needs, such as my own brother, who has taken handicap swimming lessons ever since he was a kid. The amount of passion and consideration put into this pool by all staff members is very admirable, which is why on a hot summer's day, the Charles E is the place to be!
