The revitalized Aquatic Center opens today—Saturday, May 29—at Hailey’s Community Campus.
The BCRD Aquatic Center Revitalization Project doubled the capacity of the Aquatic Center and added a new zero-depth entry leisure pool, according to Morgan Buckert, associate director of the Blaine County Recreation District.
The reinvigorated Aquatic Center also features a 25-yard, six-lane pool, a log roller in the leisure pool and a snack bar that will be open during open swim.
Swimmers will be able to play water ball using a new basketball hoop and practice safe climbing via a new climbing wall in the lap pool.
Pre-season hours run from May 29-june 13. Regular season begins June 14. Season passes are available at Early Bird pricing through Monday, May 31, at www.bcrd.org.
