Derry Twp Parks & Recreation - Recreation center in Hershey - 605 Cocoa Ave, USA

Beautiful outdoor pool complex, indoor heated family pool, competition lap pool, basketball court, huge gym with personal trainers, tennis courts, a senior center, and a kids playground. Great friendly staff. Reasonable prices and lots of activities.

Leisure pool, outdoor pool and play areas were immaculate. Has locker rooms, showers and clean restrooms. Life guards were kind and alert. Great place.

I used to go a couple times a week, love it to get a little sun, very clean good hours

This is a terrific family friendly facility. The staff are welcoming and maintain the site well. Swim lessons are offered by young adults who really know how to connect with kids. The competition, leisure, and outdoor pools are exceptionally nice for a community center. The fitness center and courts are equally impressive.

The park is very good and well maintained. We went there on New Year day so the building was closed but our kids have enjoyed the community park rides. They have well separated court for tennis, soccer, swimming and volleyball. The park is also easily accessible to all the local residents and well organised. We have been there for a hour or more but we have enjoyed the time with the kids after the Hershey chocolate world.

The pool has been a refreshing get away for the kids, they absolutely love it. I wish the hours were more often. With winter months the "park and playground" get quite old... LoL When they originally started with the indoor we were excited. There must have been issues with keeping people on scheduling or hiring I'm not sure but the hours for the indoor pool were varying all over the place, we would have kept our membership but with the hours it was really difficult to make that choice. So we do our day passes. Great place, and the hours appear steady this moment , so we might renew our membership again. I read the one review and I'm quite shocked. We've been going to the rec center since they're reopening and we have not experienced any issues with the pool indoor or outdoor. I've never even seen alcohol on any spot of the establishment. If there was alcohol I would hope that someone would be able to step up to the plate to let the management know the situation. Cuz I would, and that would be the appropriate thing to do, because it's not my expectation really that management would consistently and constantly be watching because that would be difficult in any situation or any facilities. A community rec center is a responsibility and a representation of a community.

Always an experience! Tons of classes, well worth a membership.

IMO** This project was a FLOP. Small fitness area small gym. Way too many empty rooms with mirrors. Why are there so many empty rooms with mirrors? The Skate park was removed to make more room for parking (which is not needed because the volume is not there). I’d love to see double the court space inside and a better place for indoor/outdoor pickle ball where you don’t have to share the court with competing sports. RIP to the skate park & my pickle ball game ✌️
