Aquatic Center Programs

We offer a pool with over 200,000 gallons of water for summer use; and a Splash Pad. The Splash Pad has a complete waterplay system complete with a 14' Blue Heron named Hector who is ready to drop his water bucket on you! Our pool has a diving board and gets as deep as 12.5 feet for more experienced swimmers. Grassy areas for sunbathing make this facility more than just a place to swim.
