While it sounds nice that it's heated I don't know. I just can't get into the idea of a pool out here where it's continually already cold and miserable most of the time and often rather wet to boot. Not to mention all of this getting even worse in the summer. If we actually had warm, sunny summer days then it would be great, but I think I'll stick to being bundled up in a heavy coat all summer rather than risk even a moment of coming out of a pool into the frigid air.

Community pool? You're implying that people "share" a swimming pool? That's just not right.

It is perhaps too out of the way if you are in the Mission, but the community pool in Brisbane is open year round. It is outdoors, heated, and they have parking, lockers and picnic tables. Photos and details here: http://www.ci.brisbane.ca.us/html/cityDept/park/poolProgram.asp

The Mission needs year round outdoor recreation for it's residents. Mission families don't have nearly enough opportunities for outdoor exercise. This is something I can get behind. I heart the Mission Pool. Fundraiser anyone? Chicken John? Zin Zin?
