Overview

For many years, the Radville Swimming Pool has been a place to “cool off” and have fun in the heat of the summer.   Several surrounding communities have come to enjoy the use of the pool for leisure, recreation and swimming lessons.  

Our proposed project does not only involve the physical construction of a new swimming pool, but more importantly, it will provide increased programming opportunities for people of all ages, abilities, swimming / fitness levels, and socio-economic statuses.

Healthy lifestyles are developed early in life and a swimming pool is the perfect venue for youth to engage in physical activity and social interaction.  Sporting facilities, and more specifically in our community, the recreation centre and swimming pool, are the hub of the community.  Simply stated, our community and surrounding areas, would be “lost” without a swimming pool.
