SUMMARY:"A Place to Unite - the new Bellevue Aquatic Center"
DESCRIPTION:Susan Pappalardo – Co-Founder and President \n SPLASHForward\nIt has been just over fifty years since the last new public pool was built on the Eastside and our population has grown tremendously and is much more diverse. Learn about the nonprofit SPLASHForward’s efforts to bring a game-changing new Bellevue Aquatic Center to the City of Bellevue to meet our aquatic needs and provide aquatic pathways so that everyone can learn essential life skills and be safe around water. SPLASHForward is the private partner to the City of Bellevue bringing stakeholder voices to the process\, creating community engagement\, developing long lasting partnerships\, leading the vision for the facility design and usage\, and providing the private funding to a 130\,000 square foot aquatic facility that will be an economic driver to our local economy. In support of their mission\, they have several initiatives including a HS Lifeguard Training Program that has supported 76 students to date. SPLASHForward envisions a world where everyone is safe around water and has equitable access to best-in-class aquatic centers that are vibrant places of pride and inclusive for all. Their mission is to build healthier\, stronger\, and safer communities by creating equitable access to aquatic facilities and programs that build essential life skills\, inclusion\, connection\, and active lifestyles. \nAbout the Speaker\nSusan is the co-founder and president of the nonprofit SPLASHForward founded in 2018 when the city of Bellevue reawakened their efforts to explore a new comprehensive regional public aquatic center.
