2023 Season Opening June 16th (Water Slide Side ONLY)
Aquatic Center will NOT BE OPEN on Monday June 19 or Tuesday July 4th, 2023
2023 Aquatic Center News
We will be starting off the season this year with ONLY the water slide side open. We are working with Aquatic Consultants to update our 1960s Lap Pool and bring some parts to the system up to current standards. We hope that we will be able to still open that side this summer and will keep information coming as we know it. Currently we will be offering Swimming Lessons on the Slide Side for Level 2 swimmers and lower. We will have a modified schedule to reflect only 1 available side as well as more trainings for our staff the first few weeks of the season.
All the normal posted rules still need to be followed on the water slide side as far as young children in the pool and needing to have adult supervision with them, as well as all normal 48" height requirements to slide down the water slides. We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate your patience as we navigate through trying to update our older pool as we are working toward getting a whole new faciality designed and built within the next few years.

Swim lessons provide vital life skills to children and adults and summer employment provides area youth with job skills. The grassy picnic area is a great place for picnics and reunions.

Lightning & Storm Safety
In case of lightning and summer storms, our facility refers to the National Lightning Safety website. "If you can hear it, clear it; if you can see it, flee it." Get away from water, Don't be a fool, get out of the pool!
- Stay away from all wiring, plumbing, and electrical equipment.
- Trees should not be used as shelter during an electrical storm.
- When thunder roars, get indoors!
- Lightning can strike up to 10 miles ahead of the storm.
If a lifeguard sees lightning strike while at the Aquatic Center, they will clear the pool and start a 30 minute timer. If they see another lighting strike, the timer will start over. Patrons will only be let back into the pool if 30 minutes pass without seeing any more lightning strikes.
