Our Story
At BAC, we teach swimming for all levels, from beginner to advanced, and conduct water aerobics classes for all ages. Our new aquatic center building was completed in 2003 and manager Fern Shreckendgust has been at the helm since August of 2004, overseeing a growing number of popular programs.
Our government-funded facility is for everyone's use and enjoyment. Our indoor and outdoor pools are well used, and we already have a splash pad and waterslides for summer use. Our board is planning to expand training and activities to include scuba diving and kayaking classes.
BAC strives to keep up with the demands of the community by providing an excellent place for people to have year-round recreational swims, to learn how to swim, and benefit from aerobics training. Please make BAC a regular part of your recreation and fitness schedule. Read Our Facebook Reviews
