Our Vision:
To provide a first-class aquatics and wellness facility in Falmouth that is accessible to and reflects the strengths, qualities and values of our vibrant and diverse community.
-
Just add water
Aquatics centers in towns and regions similar to Falmouth and the Upper Cape can offer a variety of aquatics options. A "competition" swimming pool for swim teams and recreational swimmers. Warm-water therapy pool. Shallow, warm-water pool for water aerobics, lap swimming, and learn-to-swim programs. Aquatics centers can also have community-wide economic benefits. Facilities that host swim meets attract new visitors, and help support hotels, restaurants, and businesses, particularly during the winter swim season.
-
Family recreation
Aquatics centers can feature indoor and/or outdoor "splash parks", with water slides, sprays, flowing river channels, and beach style zero-entry for infants, toddlers, and disabled. Rainy day at the beach? Tired of sitting in line to park at Old Silver? Another cold, wet winter day? Hit the splash park!
-
More than just a pool
Land-based fitness and wellness facilities and programming are important for broad participation and financial sustainability. Treadmills, spin bikes, exercise machines and weights. Cardio, aerobics, and yoga classes. Child-watch and/or day-care. Classrooms and meeting spaces for teaching and training.
-
Strengthening the community
Aquatics centers can provide services and support, such as membership scholarships for underserved populations, teaching all school children to swim, and unique special needs programming. They often partner with other community programs to improve the range and delivery of valuable community services.
-
Something for everyone
Today's aquatics facilities offer diverse activities to patrons of all ages, incomes, fitness levels, and interest levels. These facilities offer affordable recreation, instruction, fitness, competitive programs, and therapeutic programs for all citizens and visitors.

Aquatics excellence
Falmouth and the Upper Cape have hundreds of participants in learn-to-swim and competitive programs at all age levels from kids to seniors. We have several excellent programs and coaches. But we lack an aquatics facility that can help realize our full community potential.
