I figured this summer my son and I were going to be limited to the baby pool on our deck. Our local pool in Connersville is, um, questionable at best. It gained quite a reputation a few years ago for a couple randy adults who couldn't control themselves in the shallow end and had to be separated. Yeah, you should Google that.
Anyway, I decided to give Rushville's municipal pool a try since I like their park so much (placing the police station right next to it was a clutch move, Rush County). Not surprisingly, it's fantastic! The locker rooms are well-maintained, the lifeguards actually pay attention and do their jobs, there's plenty of seating, and the water slide is safe and fun even for tiny ones like my two-year-old (I have to ride with him, but I enjoy having an excuse to go on it!). It never seems to get too crowded, even on super hot days. Hmmm.... maybe I shouldn't post this review...
Anyway, two thumbs up, Rushville! We'll gladly make the 15-minute drive for this kind of summer fun! read more
