Meyers Pool (7900 Carr Dr.) is owned by the City of Arvada, and operated and maintained by the Apex Park and Recreation District. Elected officials from the City of Arvada, Apex Park and Recreation District and Jeffco Schools have been meeting to discuss its future. Understanding that the facility has a limited life span, these partners have set a goal to replace it with a new 50-meter natatorium.
