AquaPlay Getting Some Attention

After 10 years of use and enjoyable fun, the AquaPlay is getting some much - needed attention. Along with the replaster project, the city is bringing in a company to help restore the AquaPlay and tower slides back to their original luster. The company will repaint and polish the structure and the slides, replacing pieces as needed.

This side project will not interfere with any of the replaster work that is being done and will allow us to keep this AquaPlay around for another 10 years.

Staying Active with Silver Sneakers

Staying active is a challenge at any age and it gets even more difficult as we age. Luckily there is a program available locally to help older adults stay active. The Silver Sneakers programs helps adults - 55 and older receive free or reduced gym memberships. These gym memberships aren't just about staying active, but also staying social.

Silver Sneakers aims to keep both the body and mind staying active.

The Silver Sneakers programs accepts a variety of insurances and offers a few different location options. There are four Silver Sneaker locations here in Lompoc, including the YMCA. Those who become a YMCA member with Silver Sneakers, will be able to gain access to the pool and some of its programs. The YMCA and the Lompoc Aquatic Center work jointly to help people stay active and healthy.

For more information on the Silver Sneaker program, check out the Silver Sneaker website.

For more information about the YMCA here in Lompoc, please call (805) 736-3483 or visit the YMCA website.

Meet the Lompoc Aquatic Center Staff

No, this isn't a commercial photo, these are the real-life Mindoro brothers.

Working for the City of Lompoc is in the Mindoro family roots. Their dad works for the city and so do his hard-working boys. Bryce and Diego Mindoro are the sons of Jim Mindoro and are life-long Lompoc residents. Both boys grew up going to the Lompoc Aquatic Center and consider it a home away from home. Bryce wants to become a software engineer while Diego wants to be an environmental biologist. When you see these boys around the pool, ask them how school is going.
