Y We’re Building a Pool

There is not a public pool in North Clark County. The YMCA Pool is a much needed community asset that will provide opportunities for Water Safety, physical health, stress relief and confidence for individuals of all ages.

WATER SAFETY

• Drowning is the leading cause of death for kids ages 1-4.
• Swim lessons reduce the risk of drowning by 88%.

PHYSICAL HEALTH

• Swimming and Water aerobics are low impact exercise options that improve heart and lung health.
• Water resistance helps build muscle strength and endurance.

STRESS RELIEF

• Regular exercise and social interactions reduce stress and depression.
• Water aerobics and swimming can improve your mood.

Children who learn to swim develop confidence and self-esteem.
