JOIN US ON MARCH 28TH, 7-8:30PM
How can I learn more about Swim Winchester plans to build an indoor pool in town? Over the past few years, with generous financial support from the community, we’ve developed a business plan, carried out detailed and diligent site studies, and finalized a preliminary design for the aquatic center. We will be hosting an information session on March 28th, 2024 in the Large Meeting Room at the Winchester Public Library to provide a project update and answer questions. We hope that you can join us!
THANK YOU!
