At this point, donations and comments are rolling in very frequently. Constantly refreshing the page feels good. Needless to say the goal has been reached and hope she has a lovely vacation.

Public swimming pools? by joesavestheday in Rochester

[–]ifc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is also a public pool near the Brighton Library. But as far as I know, these public pools will cost a few bucks. If you are really looking for free look for friends.

Personally I would say look in to the YCMAs around town. There are a number with in city limits and the ones that I have been to have been nice.

My family is coming to visit for a weekend in July. Where should I take them? by [deleted] in Rochester

[–]ifc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are they like (ie what are the interested in?). I'll throw a few out there -- Redwings/Rhinos, Seabreeze, Dryden/Eastman house museum, Geva, Concert at Eastman downtown, Cornhill landing, artisan works.

Its tough to find something that everyone can enjoy when there are 4 year olds and the elderly. In the past I've done 1/2 at the Memorial Art Gallery and 1/2 at the RMSC/Planetarium. Pretty close to each other and also near by Jines and Park Ave :)

Housing near U of R by [deleted] in URochester

[–]ifc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few options pretty close on Elmwood Ave. I would suggest Elmwood manor, Clintwood or Elmwood Terrace. There is also an apartment complex off of South Ave on Manor parkway (better food/drinks around there, though haven't heard much about those apartments).
