As we celebrate the re-opening of the Kroc Aquatics Competition Pool we want to highlight the many people that worked hard to make the necessary repairs to make the pool safe and clean for Kroc Members.

We want to give a huge thank you to the Kroc Facilities Team as well as external contractors for helping us get the Aquatics Center in tip-top shape for the summer! Here are a few photos of the hard work that was done while the pool was closed.

Enjoy swimming in the Competition Pool!
