Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center
BEST PUBLIC/NONPROFIT INDOOR FAMILY AQUATIC CENTER
(100,000 TO 200,000 ANNUAL ATTENDANCE)
Lawrence, Kan.

Who knew Santa had time during the busy holiday season to don his snazzy Hawaiian swimsuit and take a dip at the Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center in Lawrence, Kan., this year's Class 3 winner?
Well, evidently Santa knows how to pick his pools. The state-of-the-art, $9.3 million indoor facility opened in June 2001, lets the jolly holiday man slide down waterslides, bounce off diving boards and frolic with the boys and girls in the zero-depth play area during the Santa Splash Party--all while a competition is held in the Olympic-sized pool beyond the sectioned area.
