Pool Open
Way back in August 2021, with the help and support of the community, SWIMS raised $200,000 in just six months! That was so awesome and showed that the pool is considered an important community asset. Those funds were to be used to keep the pool open for 10-months, but we are pleased to let you know that your support has allowed the pool to remain open for three seasons now!
You can help keep the pool going by donating here or by becoming a sponsor or by purchasing a pool pass. This helps plan for the coming seasons.
