The Kenton County School District opened its new aquatic center, located at Scott High School in Taylor Mill, this week.
“The Kenton County Aquatics Center is a vital facility for our region,” said the school district in a recent press release. “It is the only aquatic center in Northern Kentucky that is located at a high school, and it is utilized by several local swimming and diving teams for practices and meets. In addition, the facility is used by many community organizations, including local police and fire agencies, the JROTC, Special Olympics and Boy Scouts. There will also be lifeguard training and swimming lessons offered for the community.”
The district’s previous facility was demolished in January of last year. The new center can house 440 spectators, and the pool holds about 445,000 gallons of water, compared to the previous pool’s 152,000 gallons.
