Dear River Community Pool Patron,
River Community Pool exists as an extension of River Church Family's mission of reviving our communities. We are honored to have been caring for our neighbors through the vital services and resources of River Community Pool for more than two decades. We are grateful for the opportunity to promote physical health and create social connections in a safe and family-centered environment. River Church Family has been privileged to cheerfully give countless hours and thousands of dollars toward this mission through the years, with the support of our community partners.
At the close of our 2025 season, it was apparent that River Community Pool has significant mechanical, plumbing and structural needs that must be addressed before the pool can safely reopen. With value for the health, safety and connection of our community at the forefront of our mission, we must sadly announce that we will not open River Community Pool for the 2026 season. We know this news is disappointing. We wanted to provide you, our season passholders and valued patrons, with this information directly as soon as we possibly could.
We hope to create opportunities to see and connect with you this summer, whether through our children and youth events, movie nights, barbecues or other occasions. We'll be sure to send you information about any celebrations we have planned.
As we look to the future of River Community Pool, we value your partnership and support. If you are interested in collaborating with us in future endeavors, please contact us at [email protected] or by calling 816-356-7400.
We pray your summer is filled with blessings and we hope to see you again soon!
River Church Family Pastors Timmy & 'Tisha Hensel
River Community Pool Director Matt Hastings
