Normal Parks and Recreation Aquatics

That’s a wrap on the 2025 pool season!

Thank you to the 68,500 + swimmers, splashers and sun-soakers who joined us at Anderson and Karraker Aquatic Centers this summer.

We’re proud to share during our three unannounced audits from Ellis & Associates, our lifeguards scored “Exceeds Standard” on all of them! A huge shoutout to our staff for keeping safety their top priority. 👏

Today, we pause to remember and honor the lives lost, the heroes who stepped forward, and the strength that brought our nation together on Sept. 11, 2001.

We will never forget.
