Project Spec Sheet:

Century Middle School Pool

This project included adding a brand new 20,604 SF pool facility to the existing Century Middle School. The Lakeville School District was met with the growing need for an additional pool facility, as the two existing pools at McGuire and Kenwood Trail Middle School no longer met the communities needs.

The new Blanchard Aquatic Center addition features an eight-lane, 25-yard competition pool, diving well, and three diving boards. The first floor will host both the competition pool and the diving well, women’s and men’s locker rooms, pool office, as well as a multipurpose classroom. The second floor hosts the 468 occupant seating area, concessions, and another set of restrooms.

Blanchard Aquatic Center will be utilized for a number of different activities, such as physical education, community swimming lessons, high school athletic competitions and club meets. Being that this facility will be widely used by several different parties, the interior design utilizes high quality, durable, and low maintenance materials that will provide a long life to the district.
