Our Co-Ed Volleyball Leagues are back again this year! Based on input from previous years were making a small change with two leagues available to improve everyone's experience. For those just looking to have fun and "just get it over" then our social league is for you! For those that have that competitive itch, then Monday night volleyball is the place to be. Registration for both leagues will open Nov 18th at Noon!

Early this summer, the Carlisle Parks department was awarded $35,000 in a grant from the Iowa DNR Urban Forestry program. This program will help Carlisle address numerous failing trees in North Park and support replanting of nearly 30 trees over the next few years! The first phase this fall/winter will include the removal of 8 trees and planting of 5. Join us for our tree planting day on Nov 7th at 1pm and some fun nature themed activities! We hope to see you there!

We want to thank our staff and community for another record breaking year at the Aquatic Center!

This season, we welcomed over 12,000 admissions — that's about 164 visitors a day! We were open 75 out of 80 possible days.

We also sold 352 seasonal pool passes, covering 1,184 people total, and had 185 kids participate in swim lessons — our biggest year yet!

A huge shoutout to our top attendees this season for making the pool your summer home!

None of this would be possible without our incredible lifeguards and staff who kept everyone safe all season long. Thank you for another amazing year!

Want to join our team next summer? Applications for 2027 Aquatic Center positions open December 1st.

See you next season!
