| Tomahawk Ridge Aquatic Center | 11950 Lowell Avenue | Seasonal outdoor swimming and aquatic activities. |

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mixing up the community and aquatic centers
They have different addresses, seasonal schedules and admission prices.
Assuming pickleball is always available
JCPRD’s drop-in schedule is subject to court availability and temporary program relocations.
Using 2025 membership prices as 2026 quotes
Historical rates are useful for comparison but must be verified before purchase.
Assuming every group class requires registration
The City says regular group exercise generally operates without advance registration.
Expecting automatic gym access
Leagues, rentals and events can displace normal open gym.
Confusing Matt Ross and Tomahawk Ridge programs
Many 50 Plus activities may relocate from Matt Ross during renovation work beginning in October 2026.
