City Of Bartow Aquatics Program Proposals 

The City of Bartow City Commission is planning for the reinstatement of a Municipal Pool and Aquatics Program. When the City last operated a municipal pool, it was located at the Civic Center, 2250 S. Floral Ave. Constructed in 1967, that pool has been closed for several years due to operational issues.

The goals for a pool and aquatics program include:

• Teach children within our community to swim with year-round learn-to-swim programs
• Provide a water entertainment amenity for all residents
• Establish an aquatics program for all ages to include activities like water aerobics and wellness programs
• Offer a conditioning option for local competitive swimmers*

*Neither pool option will support competitive swim meets. (Note that specification changes would have rendered the existing pool insufficient for meets as well.) The goals of the Aquatics program are as stated for the entire community.

The City Commission is considering the two location options for an Aquatics Program. In addition, the City is looking at other amenities that will enhance our community as part of the Parks & Recreation Spending plan.
