The Des Moines Pool Metropolitan Park District was created by Des Moines voters in 2009 for the purpose of repairing and maintaining the Mount Rainier Pool.  Thanks to the vision and efforts  of the original District Commissioners and the professionalism and dedication of the current staff, the Mount Rainier Pool is again in good condition and provides a clean and safe place for aquatic programs for the community.  My goal is to work with the current Commissioners and staff to implement the Commissions vision of providing every child in Des Moines with the opportunity to learn to swim.  I believe that learning to swim is the gateway to a lifelong activity that enhances quality of life.

With your support I will continue to work to ensure that the City of Des Moines always has a place for recreational and competitive swimming and other aquatic programs.

Thank you
