In addition to the fully equipped playground at Simpson Park, most of the summer activity evolves around the Chillicothe Aquatic Center also located there.

This facility is anything but typical. Water slides accommodate all levels of swimmers. Two diving boards and graduated-depth Olympic-size pool with a mushroom style fountain invite swimmers to relaxing play or invigorating exercise.

Originally constructed in 1963, the facility received a facelift in 1994 that includes a zero-depth entry area and two water slides. The facility continues to draw an average of 32,000 swimmers annually. The Aquatic Center is open from 12:30 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. daily, with the exception of Thursdays, when the Aquatic Center remains open until 8:00 p.m. Swimming lessons are provided for all swimming levels each summer. A city-wide swim meet was also added in 1999.
