01What it does

What The Friends of Central Pool Inc does

Mission

The organization operates the community swimming pool located inside the city park. Residents of the community and surrounding areas are free to use the pool facilities upon paying a daily admission or annual membership pass fee used to cover facility operating and staffing costs. A concession stand is staffed by the organization offering heated and chilled foods, drinks and candy items available for purchase by guests for their convenience. Group event staff costs are also collected from clubs hosting aquatic events at the facility when closed to the public. A nominal fee is received from a local swim club at the close of the season for the use of the facility to conduct swimming lessons promoting education and safe water activities to the general public. Annual passes, daily passes and discount coupons are given at no cost to families and residents in need throughout the season to encourage the use of the pool facilities regardless of the ability to pay.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
