Eaton Area Community Center - Eaton, CO

The small town of Eaton, Colorado, wanted a community center and aquatic facilities like those found in larger cities to fill the need for regional recreation in northeastern Colorado. With the dedication of its residents and strong community leadership, a remarkable $24 million was raised to elevate the modest 1,200 SF community center into a much larger 64,000 SF regional facility.

Young families can enjoy the zero-depth entry pool with a fun jungle-themed play area, while older kids can have a blast on the thrilling three-story waterslide and try their hand at shooting hoops. Swimmers looking for a low-impact workout can take advantage of the two lap lanes, and those seeking relaxation can float down the gentle lazy river or unwind in the soothing whirlpool with eight therapy jets to soothe tired muscles.
