    I live in Chanhassen but would like to swim at the EP Rec center this winter. Can I become a member? I am 65 and my husband is 63. is there a senior price? My daughter and her family might join us there so I am wondering about membership for them.

      Hi Andrea. You can find all the information about memberships here. Non-residents can purchase memberships for a slightly higher price than Eden Prarie residents, Senior memberships are cheaper than regular adult memberships plus they accept some senior health insurance benefits that may lower the price. Your daughters family would be a seaprate membership. We are not associated with Eden Prairie Community Center, but you can call 952-949-8470 with questions.
