John F. Thompson Memorial Swimming Pool

Pay a fee to get in and can’t absolutely do a thing! All pools allow the kids a safety floaty and these people do not. Can’t wear shorts with your bathing suit. Some of us have respect for our bodies and would not like to feel completely “naked” first and the last I’ll ever come here. Have a better time at Chicopee pool without any problems or weird rules. Also bathrooms are DISGUSTING. There was toilet paper EVERYWHERE. and the family bathroom changing table seems as though they haven’t cleaned it in a long time… there was cob webs and spiders in the changing table… Def NOT family friendly.

the pool itself is okay , the lifeguard staff are very off putting and not friendly , the shorts rule is ridiculous, its not body friendly , or family friendly , if im feeling insecure i cannot keep my shorts on , they force you to take the shorts off. just not a friendly environment or friendly staff.

READ !!!!!! BEFORE!!!!!!! GOING !!!!!!!!! I took the family today to this pool it was out first time there. The pool was clean and pretty big the staffing is horrible! It’s $4 to get in the pool it was 5 of us so I paid $20 total the lady in the front who gives us the that band ses the rules and ses cotton shirts in the pool I asked if my niece swimming shorts were ok before I give her my money she ses it’s okay, we get in the pool having fun more staff starts showing up and this one life guard keep telling my niece to take off her shorts very rude or get out the pool I refused to let her get out the pool take shorts off 1 she dose not feel comfortable with just wearing the bathing suit panties 2 before I spent my $20 I made sure ! She can get in the pool the the shorts on !! I told him sh

Great pool, clean, water was warm, plenty of lifeguards on deck. All those great things accept the pool manager Deborah Gates discriminates those who are religious and do not expose there bodies. Meaning shorts are not allowed over your bottom swimwear. Literally got kicked out of the pool for not wanting to wear my 1 piece bathing suit on it’s own. Sad that it’s such a nice place with a poor manager to run it & have no mercy on those who choose to be modest.
