The newly renovated and improved Evergreen Aquatic Center (formerly Evergreen Pool) will open April 19th, with a Grand Opening set for May 1st. The center's new logo is at top.
The Evergreen Community Aquatic Center, formerly Evergreen Pool, will open April 19th.
The center is located at 606 SW 116th Street in Unincorporated King County. Built as one of the forward thrust bond issue pools in the 1960’s, until last year it was operated by King County. In January, ownership of the pool reverted to The Highline School District, which did not have the funding to re-open the pool. The pool is adjacent to the Burien annexation area but will remain in Unincorporated King County.
The pool will be open next week for lessons and lap swims. Lessons are generally from from 9:00 to 12:00 and 4:00 to 6:00; vertical exercise / water aerobics from 7:00 to 9:00; and lap swims almost all day though accommodations can be made while the organization is building their schedule.
The Grand Opening with free public swim is set for May 1st, and they are offering a free public swim for all of those participating in the White Center Spring Clean on May 15th.
