Silverthorne Recreation Center
Bonjour, mon nom est Rachel! Hey, you know what is the most fun thing to do in the summer in Keystone, Colorado? SWIMMING! You can swim at the Silverthorne Recreation Center, about a ten-fifteen minute drive from our Keystone, Colorado rental house. Along with swimming, there’s an indoor gym, track and basketball court. And outside there’s a field, playground, basketball courts and tennis courts.
Pool: Probably the best part of the Silverthorne Recreation Center is the pool. There are three pools. One of the pools is kind of the little kid pool. This one isn’t deep and very warm. My sisters and I still go in it, though. The deepest that it gets is three feet. This pool also has a small whale slide. It’s a whale mouth, and you slide down the tongue. Another pool is half lap pool. This one does get deep. And it has a basketball hoop. Yeah let’s play some water b-ball! This pool is definitely the one you wanna move around in because it’s very chilly. And if you just want to do some laps, there are lap lanes. The last one is how I like to call it… “The Deep Pool”. This pool is just how it sounds – very deep. It also has a red slide, on which you go very fast! Woo, talk bout your thrill. There is also a water slide. This is my favorite thing to do in the pool area. You go super fast. And when you are at the bottom you go into warm water. Think about it, you just had a thrill and then you land in calming warm water. Although, you do need to get out quickly. And finally, there’s a hot tub in and out. You can relax after swimming around. Your stress melts away as the heat soaks into your skin. Or you can warm up after swimming. Anyway, the pool area is awesome!!!
Gym, Track, and Basketball Court: This one practically speaks for itself, but I can give you a little description. You can workout in the gym and then relax in the pool. There are weights and other workout equipment. The track goes around and above the two basketball courts. So you can run and watch the games going on from above. And for the basketball court, you can shoot some hoops after a day of swimming.
Outside: The field is a great place to go to play soccer, football, frisbee, really anything. And you can shoot some hoops outdoors if it’s a nice day. And the playground is great for kids. There are all the things that you would normally see at a playground. And the tennis courts are a great place to practice your serves! Wack!!!!! The hill next to the field is also a great place to go sledding. You’re down the hill in a flash!!!!!
You can see that this is a great place to go when your staying at our Keystone, Colorado rental house. You can go any season. Which is great! But if you just want to relax in a hot tub, we do have one in the back yard for you. See Ya!!!
