Throwback to the construction of the City of Pierre's outdoor swimming pool! 🏊‍♂️

From the initial earthwork to the final concrete pours, bringing an aquatic facility to life takes a tremendous team effort. Engineers, contractors, city leaders, community volunteers, and countless other partners all play a critical role in turning a vision into a community asset.

It's always exciting to look back at where a project started and see the impact it has today for residents, families, and visitors alike.

A warm summer afternoon. Kids racing toward the water with towels over their shoulders. Parents catching up under the shade. Lifeguard whistles echoing across the pool deck.

Community aquatic spaces are about so much more than swimming. They become the backdrop for first jobs, swimming lessons, family traditions, and memories that last for generations.

At Burbach Aquatics, we’re proud to partner with communities to create spaces where people gather, connect, and make those moments possible. Every project starts with a vision, but the true impact is seen in the laughter, friendships, and memories made long after construction is complete.

That’s why we do what we do. 🏊☀️

As Memorial Day weekend begins, our industry often associates this time of year with pool openings and the unofficial start of summer across the Midwest. But before the busy season kicks off, we want to take a moment to recognize the true meaning behind the holiday.

This weekend, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country. We are grateful for all veterans, past and present, for their service and sacrifice.

Wishing everyone a safe, meaningful, and enjoyable Memorial Day weekend spent with friends, family, and community.

Please note that our office will be closed on Monday in observance of Memorial Day.

💧 May is National Water Safety Month and we want to talk about something close to our hearts.

Drowning is the leading cause of unintentional injury death for children ages 1 to 4, and the second leading cause for children ages 5 to 14. And it's largely preventable.

The difference? Access to a place to learn.

A public swimming pool isn't a luxury, it's life-saving infrastructure. It's where a 6-year-old learns she can float. Where a grandfather keeps his joints moving. Where a teenager earns his lifeguard certification. Where a community gathers on a summer afternoon and remembers what it feels like to just... breathe.

We design and build aquatic facilities for communities across the region, and every project reminds us why this work matters.

This month, we're calling on municipal leaders, community advocates, donors, and neighbors to ask: Does our community have what it needs to keep everyone safe in the water?

Across parks and recreation surveys nationwide, swimming pools consistently rank among the top priorities for community recreation investments.

In many local studies, around half of residents rate outdoor pools as “essential” or “very important” amenities, showing just how strongly communities value access to aquatic recreation.

But it’s easy to see why. Community pools provide so much more than swimming:
• Safe places for kids to learn water skills
• Healthy, active recreation for all ages and abilities
• A welcoming space for families and friends to gather
• Summer memories that last a lifetime

At their core, community pools are about connection, wellness, and quality of life.

🏊‍♂️ Burbach Aquatics is proud to support communities in creating spaces where people come together, stay active, and enjoy the best parts of summer.
