Tippecanoe Family Aquatic Center

The Tippecanoe Family Aquatic Center includes two heated swimming pools: a traditional lap pool with two diving boards and a zero depth entry pool.   The zero depth entry pool has a central play structure including a 300 gallon dumping bucket and two speed water slides.   The facility also has a water park spray grounds and an attractive bath house and concession facility.

What distinguishes the Tippecanoe Family Aquatic Center from other outdoor aquatic facilities is the integration of the surrounding century-old City Park features into the design of the facility.  During the design phase, community input emphasized that very few of the mature trees should be cut down to accommodate the facility.   As a result, the project architects took special care to design around these towering trees which now provide a complement of shade and greenery not found in many modern water parks today.  Over 60,000 residents and visitors patronize the Tippecanoe Family Aquatic Center each year.
