After more than two years of anticipation, the Pasco Aquatic Center is one step closer to becoming a reality. Pictures shown at a recent Public Facilities Board Meeting, give a glimpse of what the completed facility would look like. The idea has been on the Tri-Cities' mind since the 1980's.
The building itself is set to be massive, coming in at around 33,000 square feet. The space will include a three-lane lap pool, two water slides, and a hot tub-style pool that opens to the outdoor area, as well as a lazy river, a water vortex, a children's area, and even a social space just off the lazy river. The location is set to be a community staple with both indoor and outdoor concessions also offered and even food truck parking.
Leaders say their plan is to have 60% of activities available year-round inside the building, with 40% of activities outside. Project leaders tell us on the outside, you'll see 4,700 square feet of fun. For families and events, there will be picnic areas, another children's area, a wave-ball court, a basketball pool, a climbing wall, and even a ninja course.
