About Us
Hello! We are Waterloo Citizens for a Pool (WCP), a group of individuals with a passion for our community — particularly, a community pool, with maybe a lazy river and a splash pad, just for kicks (and splashes). Fun in the sun makes us happy. Seeing our community’s youth enjoying their summers makes us happy. Providing an opportunity to “stay home” for aquatic fun, rather than traveling distances and spending our money elsewhere, makes us happy.
We truly believe in the life-enhancing power of a cohesive community and its ability to simplify our social experiences, elevate our “off” time, engage and inspire people, not only in the city of Waterloo, IL, but the surrounding communities as well. A well-designed pool, combined with good relationships and community cohesion, comes from the collaboration of individuals and city government. We’re excited to build something beautiful together, that will enhance our local community now, and for many years to come.
Our Mission:
WCP is a community organization, dedicated to bettering our community, our families and especially, our youth, through bringing a pool back to the city of Waterloo, Illinois.
