26 March 2026 – The WECRD Aquatic Center continues to move forward — slow and steady, but with solid progress. We’ve placed orders for the CMU blocks and reinforced steel needed for the interior walls, and Andersen Construction will soon begin coordinating utilities for their temporary setup as they prepare to start wall installation.

23 March 2026 – The CMU block is being ordered today. The color palette is simple, with the darker shade used as an accent trim and the lighter shade serving as the primary color. These selections were made to allow flexibility for future decor choices, including the option for paint or murals.
