Dear Kachemak Swim Club Families,
We wanted to share the following news article regarding the ongoing discussions surrounding the future of several Kenai Peninsula pools, including the Kate Kuhns Aquatic Center in Homer:
Drowning in Uncertainty: Communities Await Fate of Peninsula Pools
As highlighted in the article, proposals submitted by communities across the peninsula are currently under review by the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District. The future operation of our local pool remains uncertain while these discussions continue.
The Kachemak Swim Club Board of Directors has been working diligently with the City of Homer, local elected officials, and community partners to develop a sustainable solution that will keep the pool open for both our swimmers and the greater Homer community.
