Get in the swim at Echo Hollow Pool


Early Risers Some people might not know this but Echo Hollow Pool and Fitness Center gets things going early. Like 5:30 a.m., it’s still dark outside early. Monday through Friday, the newly expanded outdoor tank sees more than a few hearty swimmers don their goggles and slip into the steamy water to get their laps in before most of us have had our morning coffee. It’s a ritual repeated day in and day out, akin to the jogger who pulls on their running shoes to get a few miles in on Pre’s Trail before work. It’s a release. For more than a year Echo Hollow was closed for renovation and expansion. In June 2021 we finally welcomed the community back inside. Pandemic uncertainty limited the amount of availability we would like to provide, but just seeing swimmers back in the facility was great. We felt good about being able to give another place in town where those early morning swimmers and water fitness fanatics could find their peace. And it’s all thanks to the 2018 Parks and Recreation Bond and Levy measures passed by voters. For

years we told you about why places like Echo Hollow, Campbell Community Center and Sheldon Pool and Fitness Center needed to be renovated. We’re playing the long game and thinking about our community’s needs for the next 50 years. Updating these aging facilities helps us set that foundation. As you peruse this guide and start thinking about your winter and spring months, maybe ponder if adding in your own fitness routine is right for you. The start of a new year always feels like the right time to get back into the swing of things. Find what fits for you. If that doesn’t include a pre-dawn swim, that’s fine. We have lap swim hours all day long.

Adventure. Community. Happiness.
