Building an Anchor for Safety, Health, Connection, and Fun!
Permits approved. Grants secured. Preparing for competitive bid. Community support helps keep us on track for a 2027 completion date.
What the New Pool Will Include
The new White Salmon Valley Pool is designed to serve swimmers of all ages — from lessons and recreation to lap swimming and community gatherings. Explore the facility layout below.
Project Progress
Major milestones are complete and the project is moving toward construction.
What does it mean to have a community without a pool?
Since the previous pool closed, our community has gone without a local place to learn water safety, cool off in summer, and gather as neighbors. The impact shows up in missed lessons, lost summer visits, and fewer safe, affordable options for kids, teens, families, and seniors.
One Campus. One Community.
With the school district levy approved, local schools will consolidate onto a single campus — the same campus where the new pool will be located. This alignment strengthens long-term access, safety programming, and community-centered planning.
Student swim instruction
Opportunities for age-appropriate lessons and skill building close to school.
Water safety education
Supports safer swimmers and a stronger culture of water readiness.
Shared community access
A single, central location that serves families, teens, and seniors.
Long-term planning
Better coordination across programs, schedules, and future community needs.
Note: The school levy and the pool project are separate efforts; the shared campus location creates opportunities for coordination and access.
Financial Stewardship
With permits approved and grants secured, we’re preparing to enter competitive construction bidding. Private donations reduce bond utilization and strengthen financial flexibility as final pricing is confirmed.
Approvals & Grants Secured
CUP/SEPA approved and RCO grant agreements signed.
Competitive Bid & Cost Clarity
Construction pricing will be established through the bid process.
Reduce Bond Reliance
Private gifts directly reduce the amount of bond funds that the district will request.
Strengthen Contingency
Donations help prepare for market variability and protect long-term public resources.
We will publish bid-phase updates as pricing is confirmed and the project advances to construction.
