Ambitious in scope but thoughtfully planned and managed throughout the design, development and construction process, the new natatorium is now complete.

The pool, filled with 200,000 gallons of water, is ready for immersion; this campus landmark is sure to delight all who enter the expansive lobby, says President and Head of School Larry A. Peevy.

“We are thrilled to welcome the TFS community into this new multi-purpose space,” Peevy says. “This project is the culmination of much hard work, made possible by our long-time partnership with Ron Cantrell Construction, Inc.”

With 27 rooms and closets, 124 windows, 49 doors, 1,599 cartons of tiles, 151 hinges, 19 faucets, the 20,957 square foot building is a remarkable addition to the already impressive list of athletic facilities.

The state-of-the-art facility will feature a 10-lane competition-sized pool with bleacher seating for up to 240. Concession and special event areas, offices, locker rooms, restrooms and observation/ gathering areas for visiting teams are all part of the space plan. Technology is integrated into the facility, with charging stations, monitors and highend leader and scoreboards included.

The natatorium will be home to the TFS competitive swim team and used for physical education classes, including SCUBA, boating, and water-related safety courses. It will be open for recreational use for students, faculty and staff.
