Servus Place with Finger Smudge |
I went to the gym at Servus Place on Sunday morning and went back in the afternoon and brought the kids. This way I only had to pay for admission once, as Servus uses the daily bracelet method of verifying your admission. Admission for me was $10, and the kids was $4.50 each, so $19 for the three of us to access all of the facilities.
We had been told that kids are allowed on the track on Sundays between 1 and 3 so we went up there first and the kids enjoyed running around for a couple of laps. There weren't a lot of other kids on the track though, and none as young as mine (4 and 6) so it was a little awkward feeling.

After running we had snacks in the leather chairs by the restaurants (they have Starbucks, Booster Juice, and Skybox Grill is somewhere else) before swimming. We also watched a little bit of an indoor soccer game that was going on, it was pretty impressive how many events were being held at Servus place, soccer games, hockey games, fitness classes, etc.

The swimming pool was nice, the highlight was the river ride, but it was much slower than Terwillegar or Millenium Place. The funny thing was it was fairly shallow in the River Ride itself, good for little kids, but to get there you had to go through the deep end, bad for little kids (though I guess there were direct stairs too). They also had two waterslides (1 more than Terwillegar, 2 more than Millenium). The pool area also has two large hot tubs, a steam room, and a sauna. The biggest weakness is lap swimming, they only have one lane and it is crammed right in with everything else.
