Welcome to Donner Aquatic Center!

Donner Aquatics Center is located at
22nd and Sycamore St
Columbus, IN 47201
The pool was named for William H. Donner, a Philadelphia industrialist
and native of Columbus, who donated the pool and Donner Center to the city in 1948. The original construction cost was $400,000.
The aquatic center had a major renovation, including the addition of the leisure pool and concession stand in 1998. A movable
floor which permits the depth at the south end of the main pool to vary from 14" to 5' was installed in 2006.

An 8 lane 50 meter lap pool

A waterslide that
