fac-poolABOUT THE JONES CENTER POOL: After 20 years of hosting Northwest Arkansas kids and their families at the Splash Pool and Fun Slide, the aquatic area was renovated in late 2015. The new look is light, bright and kid-friendly, showing off huge splashes of colorful graphics that feature real kids who live and play here in Northwest Arkansas.

The mushroom water fountain is still one of the most popular features and the slide was renovated to be better than ever. Right across from the Splash Pool and Fun Slide is the Junior Olympic-Size Competition Pool, which is host to the Razorback Aquatic Swim Team, the Springdale High School Swim Team, lots of regional swim meets as well as lap swimming and deep water aerobics classes, too. There are also public swim sessions and plenty of birthday party action. Local lifeguards often get their certification and training done at the Jones Center pool, too.
