​

Who are we?

• The JeffCo Aquatic Coalition (JAC) is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit citizen organization that advocates for aquatics in Jefferson County. JAC's mission is to provide proactive leadership and advocacy to sustain a thriving public aquatic recreation facility that serves the needs of East Jefferson County NOW and IN THE FUTURE.  

• We support the current Mountain View Pool and programs as well as efforts to replace it with a modern aquatic facility.

• We believe that JAC's goal of supporting aquatics to improve water safety, health, wellness, recreation and competition for all ages is critical to local quality of life.

• JAC was founded in 2012.  It took over the former Make Waves! 501(c)(3).

​

What is a JAC supporter? Why should I become one?

• JAC has over 2300 supporters - people who support JAC's mission (above).

• When JAC board members speak to elected officials and community leaders they represent a large constituency for community aquatics.

• There is no cost to be a JAC supporter, nor do you need to attend any meetings.

• You will receive quarterly e-mail newsletters and infrequent announcements -- only if you provide us your e-mail address.

​

How is JAC governed?

• JAC is governed by a volunteer board of directors. 

• The board annually elects officers.

• JAC bylaws and director names are available at www.jeffcoaquaticcoalition.org.

​

How is JAC financed?

• JAC sends an occasional appeal (voluntary) to its supporters for donations to cover operational costs needed to support its mission.

• JAC solicits donations from businesses and others for the funds needed to support public swim lesson scholarships at Mountain View Pool.

• Donations to JAC are tax deductible, to the extent provided by law.
