NYC Parks Department!

So this is something I consider a great deal.. NYC Parks department have recreation centers all around the city, some actually have indoor pools available year-round!! They offer member only fitness classes, all access to the fitness equipment, gyms, and indoor tracks, use of game room equipment (mainly Fuseball, Pingpong, and Pool tables). 

The membership for those 18 and older is $100 for access to any facility without a pool and with the pool is $150 for a YEAR. Thats $8.34 or $12.50 a month! You can purchase 6 month memberships as well, for $50 or $75. Under 18, FREE! Bring the kids. 

I've been to the Jackie Robinson Center in Harlem. It is a little dark for my taste, they could use better lighting, but the equipment worked and it was relatively clean (gyms kinda skeeve me out). I've also been to the Chelsea Center in Chelsea. It is a newer center with an indoor pool, very bright, also relatively clean, but all the way over on the west side. I signed up for the 6 month membership at a facility with an indoor pool. I also signed my kids up. $75 for the family.. is not a bad deal at all.   Let me know what you think!
