The SC Johnson Community Aquatic Center at Pritchard Park is expected to reopen in 2021 in accordance with public health guidelines and local regulations, Racine County and Racine Family YMCA officials have announced.

Season passes are on sale now and can be purchased at the Sealed Air Branch welcome desk, 8501 Campus Drive, Mount Pleasant. The Aquatic Center is planning to again hold Safety Around Water programs, lap swimming, the Water Watcher program, open swimming, and other offerings. More details, including potential capacity restrictions and an opening date, will be announced later this spring. 

“After closing the facility due to COVID-19 last year, we are so excited to again provide children and families with a safe place to gather, learn to swim, and beat the heat on those hot summer days,” Racine County and Racine Family YMCA officials said in a statement.

The SC Johnson Community Aquatic Center opened in the summer of 2018 to provide a fun and safe recreation area for Racine County residents. Featuring 15,000 square feet of water surface and a 4,800 square foot pool building with changing rooms, the facility is also available for birthday parties and group rentals. The Racine Family YMCA has operated the Aquatic Center at the Racine County-owned Pritchard Park (2800 Ohio Street, Racine, WI 53403) since its 2018 opening.
