Missoula can be proud of the success they have achieved with their dream to build two exciting water parks called “Splash Montana” and “The Lake.” These aquatic facilities were achieved through the community working together to create family-oriented places for refreshment and recreation. They believe these aquatics facilities are not just swimming pools, but a long-term investment in their health and community.
Splash Montana is an outdoor aquatic facility with amenities that include three 3-story waterslides, a lazy river, party shelters, a cafe, and family locker rooms. The Lake is the addition of a 50-meter pool with eight-lap lanes. This 12, 300 SF of water space added to Splash Montana will provide competitive swimming, fitness classes, swim lessons, lap swimming, kayaking, and scuba classes. The Lake will also be used for water polo, water volleyball, and basketball. It has a wheelchair-accessible ramp and lift and is fully ADA-compliant. The total cost of the project was about $1.2 million.
