Newell Waterpark Project Update!
Our committee has been hard at work behind the scenes, continuing to make progress on this exciting project!
We received great feedback from families at Back-to-School Night, and we’re using that input to help guide our planning. We’ve been working closely with an engineer to develop a design that considers the needs of future users, creates a fun and welcoming experience for all ages, and makes Newell a destination for families and visitors alike. We’re hopeful to have a final design to share soon!
We’ve also identified potential grant opportunities to support the project. This week, we'll meet with the city council to discuss these opportunities and to have the old pool location surveyed. We are also working to compile estimates for all project needs.
There are still plenty of details to work through, but we’re excited about the progress being made and look forward to sharing more as plans come together.
Thank you for your continued interest, feedback, and support as we work to bring this vision to life in Newell!"
