Ponds Forge - Surf City Leisure Pool

Surf City Leisure Pool

The "Surf City" leisure pool complex comprises many water-based attractions, that is open for public use:

  • A modern leisure swimming pool, which is used for lane swimming or leisure swimming. At regular intervals a wave machine is activated in this pool, turning it into a topsy-turvy experience similar to swimming in the sea.
  • A lazy river goes around the outside of the square pool with a reasonably strong current, children can float on rings in the current.
  • A smaller children's pool with a waterfall and fountains
  • Two large water slides that loop outside and then traverse back in above the leisure pool.

Famous quotes containing the words surf, city, leisure and/or pool:

    There was so much of the Indian accent resounding through his English, so much of the “bow-arrow tang” as my neighbor calls it.... It was a wild and refreshing sound, like that of the wind among the pines, or the booming of the surf on the shore.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    O City city, I can sometimes hear
    Beside a public bar in Lower Thames Street,
    The pleasant whining of a mandolin
    And a clatter and a chatter from within
    Where fishmen lounge at noon.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man’s life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars. What are threescore years and ten hurriedly and coarsely lived to moments of divine leisure in which your life is coincident with the life of the universe?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I hate to say it, Cory, but as a pool player you make a fine speedboat mechanic.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
