Amenities will include a multi-activity gymnasium, weight and fitness area, aerobics/dance studio, a large community meeting room with catering kitchen, an elevated walk/jog track, a babysitting room, a game area, a party room, a climbing wall, and a state of the art leisure pool that includes two indoor/outdoor body slides, current channel with over-pour for kayaking, family whirlpool, and a beautiful natatorium. Here is a floorplan:
