Outdoor Pools
Life Time’s proposal includes an outdoor pool deck that is enclosed by a decorative iron fence and
surrounded by landscaping to provide privacy and screening for that resort-like feel. The pools include a
zero-entry leisure pool with waterslide for children and young families, and outdoor lap pool, and
whirlpool. The outdoor pools are operated seasonally and are open between Memorial Day and Labor
Day. Leisure pool hours are 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, and lap pool hours are dawn to dusk.

are chosen to blend in with the natural environment.

for sun protection.

The outdoor pools are not operated after dusk so minimal lighting is installed to ensure public safety
near open water such as bollard lighting and underwater lights.

Outdoor Kid’s Play Area
Life Time’s proposal includes an outdoor turf area that is enclosed by a decorative iron fence and
covered with a shade canopy for sun protection and is accessed from the interior of the building. The
outdoor turf area is an extension of the Life Time Kid’s Academy (LTKA) programming that includes
gymnastics, sports skills, yoga and more. Temporary recreational equipment, such as soccer nets, will be
placed in the enclosure dependent on the programming.
