The Bourbon County Coalition is gearing up with its’ annual family swim pass program, according to Billie Jo Drake, president.

“The goal of the family swim pass program is to provide access to the Fort Scott Aquatic Center for qualifying low-income families,” she said. “The application process includes proof of income.”

Application forms are now available at The Beacon and Buck Run Community Center; completed forms must be returned to Buck Run by April 30.

Funding for this program is provided by The Bourbon County Inter-Agency Coalition Board, Key Charitable Trust, SEK Community Foundation, Fort Scott Area Community Foundation, the City of Fort Scott, and generous individuals.

The duration of the approved passes will be for the 2021 swimming season.
