Attendance Strong At Aquatic Center's Opening Day
But the YMCA, which runs the community pool, has not provided any other data on how many people are using the new facility.
More than 2,000 people attended the grand opening of the $7.7 million Palm Desert Aquatic Center a week ago.
The facility boasts a competition, recreation and splash pool, as well as a slide, diving boards and a concession stand.
So far, attendance has been strong, according to city spokesman David Hermann.

Calls to Karen Creasy, the Aquatic Center's manager, to get a better picture of how many valley residents are using the pool went unanswered last week. The data on opening day was provided to Patch through the city of Palm Desert.
