About this adventure

When grey winter days call for active indoor fun, the 145,000-square-foot Westerville Community Center offers an aquatic paradise that makes freezing weather feel a thousand miles away. The star attraction is the expansive indoor watering hole, featuring a warm-water leisure pool with a zero-depth beach-style entry that is perfect for toddlers. Young swimmers delight in the pirate-ship-themed splash play structure complete with mini waterslides, interactive tipping buckets, and spraying water cannons. Families can float together along the gentle lazy river or zip down the 100-foot corkscrew indoor water slide. Beyond swimming, the recreation center boasts an indoor multi-story Adventure Play gym featuring climbing tubes and slides, a spacious gymnasium for family open basketball, and a second-floor walking track with sweeping views of the pool deck.
