The James A. Leach Aquatic and Recreation Center natatorium features an eight-lane, 25-yard competition pool that caters to serious swimmers and aquatic enthusiasts. Adjacent to the competition pool is a separate recreation pool, complete with a zero-entry ramp, spray features and two exercise swimming lanes. A dynamic waterslide extends outside and back into the pool area, and the second floor offers an accessible spectator seating area accommodating up to 200 individuals.
The natatorium boasts full-height glass walls that flood the interior with natural light and offer unobstructed views of the picturesque surroundings. The thoughtfully designed recreation center also includes a state-of-the-art gymnasium, six versatile multipurpose rooms (including two adjacent to the swimming pools for event hosting), a concessions stand, locker rooms, and administrative offices for the Hoke County Parks and Recreation Department.
