Aquatic Adventure Cross Project

The Northglenn Recreation Center, Senior Center & Theatre is seeking a fun, out-of-the-box system to enhance programming in the lap pool. The addition of an aquatic adventure course, like the Ninja Cross System, is a retractable system that allows for the lap pool to be utilized for traditional lap swim, as well as have the opportunity to add a whole new fun fitness element. The system would be mounted directly to the facility’s existing roof structure, which lowers into position for use. The course is creatively designed with interchangeable obstacles that are fully customizable to continually create new course sand challenges with a range of difficulty. With more than 20 obstacles placed above, below, and on the water, the courses create three-dimensional challenges for swimmers and aquatics exercisers of all ages and at any fitness level. This system will complement the overall programming for the aquatic facility that otherwise may be limited to specific user groups. The unique combination of recreation, fitness, and extreme sports are all combined in the system, making it a unique enhancement to our pool that may otherwise be specifically programmed for a traditional demographic. An aquatic adventure course can be deployed in under 60 seconds to supplement programming – from high-intensity, low-impact exercise to fan-driven competitive events and recreational obstacle course racing. This enhancement is anticipated to generate new member interest at our aquatic center, particularly amongst youth and teens. The 154,633 gallon Natatorium is a tremendous asset in the new Northglenn Recreation Center. The goal of this project is to enhance the six lane, 25 yard lap pool with a retractable obstacle course for all generations.
