The Mount Vernon Rec Center has been a cornerstone of the community for more than 42 years. Thanks to voter-approved Park Bonds in 2008, 2016, and 2020, the facility is undergoing a transformative 75,000-square-foot expansion. The renovation includes a two-story fitness center, additional multipurpose spaces, a pool, a climbing wall, an indoor track, comprehensive building upgrades and a second NHL-sized ice rink. The newly renovated facility is on track to reopen in May 2025.
