Clayton County Parks & Recreation

I would have gave a 5 but even after going home and allowing Time to pass Im still annoyed. First was the interaction with the young lady at the counter who before even greeting us informed me we need a mask. I explained I was fully vaccinated and I was heading to the pool (where I wouldn’t need a mask). She told me I would need it to get to the pool. I asked if she had any masks and she told me no. I was with my 2 minor children and she pretty much turned us away. To avoid a confrontation I requested a manager to which she complied and called one however not before rolling her eyes. The manager came over and he was very polite and professional I must say no complaints there. I explained my situation and he explained to me that the county still mandates face coverings. So again I asked if he had any mask there and he said they had just run out and they would be getting some but at the moment they didn’t. During this interaction my daughter was able to locate 2 face covering. My daughter and I walked into the locker room and then she went back out for my son with the same mask. I do feel like It was personal. There were plenty of guests with no masks clearly in view by the work out area but she would not allow my 8yr old I’m without a mask.

Second issue was the pool. There was no control over the swimming lanes. There were people going over and under the ropes while other guests were trying ro use the lanes for what they were designated for (lap swimming). My children and I were sharing the lanes with other swimmers but the random people standing in the middle of the lanes made it hard.

They have an indoor pool, wide variety of cardio and strength building equipment, free weights and rooms for things like yoga. The area is beautiful and a great place for the family.

I love this park. It’s very clean and peaceful
