About Muehlenbeck Center Guide
Muehlenbeck Center Guide is a small, independent information site about one place: the Tom Muehlenbeck Recreation Center in Plano, Texas. We collect the facts visitors actually look for, such as hours, pool times, prices and rules, and present them in plain language with tables and checklists.
Independent guide. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the City of Plano or Plano Parks and Recreation. We are not the center, we cannot answer account questions, and we do not sell memberships or take registrations. For anything official, use the City of Plano's Tom Muehlenbeck Recreation Center page or call the center at 972-769-4404.
Who runs this site
The site is written and maintained by the Muehlenbeck Center Guide Editorial Team, a small group of independent researchers and writers who build visitor guides for public places. We do not publish personal bylines, staff bios or reader testimonials, and we never invent them. Everything on the site is credited to the editorial team as a whole.
How we research and check facts
- Official source first. Hours, fees, addresses, phone numbers and rules come from City of Plano web pages and the PDFs they link to. We read the pages as published on the date we check them.
- Cross-check. We compare figures across the city's center page, its pool-hours page, its memberships page and its rules page, and against recent local news when history or context is involved.
- Flag conflicts. When sources disagree, such as the center's opening year or annual visit counts, we say so in the text instead of picking one silently.
- Date everything. Each page states when figures were checked and which season's schedule they come from. The current pages were checked on Nov. 3, 2026.
- Show our sources. Every guide ends with a list of the sources it relies on, linked so you can verify them yourself.
Editorial policy
- We write original summaries and comparisons. We do not copy the city's wording beyond short, attributed phrases.
- Calculations such as break-even visit counts are our own and are labeled as such.
- We do not accept payment to include, rank or change information about any facility.
- We do not use the City of Plano's logo, photos or branding. Our tile-and-wave logo is original.
- Advertising, if shown, is kept separate from editorial content and never influences what we write.
Corrections
Schedules change every season and prices can change with the city's budget. If you spot something out of date, email contact@tommuehlenbeckcenterplano.shop with the page and, ideally, a link to the official source. We review every report and update pages when the official source confirms the change.
