Activity Center Proposal

The Case for a 50-Meter Pool

The Naperville Park District is exploring a new indoor activity center at Frontier Sports Complex. While this addresses recreation needs, we believe it deserves a full-size, long-course 50-meter pool — a feature that would dramatically expand the center's community value and long-term impact.
