As a leader in promoting health and well-being, we are honored to announce a $500,000 community contribution in support of a therapy pool in the new North County Recreation District (NCRD) Aquatic Center. This significant investment underscores the importance of health and well-being for the residents of North Tillamook County, a community we have been serving since the mid-80s with Emergency Medical Services and since 2012 with a rural health clinic in Manzanita.
Our commitment to enhancing local health services and facilities extends beyond this latest project. Annual community benefit contributions we provide, totaling approximately $200,000, support Tillamook High School Athletics, Tillamook Bay Community College clinical programs, the Tillamook YMCA, Habitat for Humanity, and many other local initiatives. This latest donation follows a precedent set by previous significant contributions, such as our support for the Tillamook YMCA’s pool, demonstrating our ongoing dedication to community health.
Mary Gallagher, Board Chair of NCRD adds, “Opening its doors in Spring 2025, the Aquatics Center will serve as a central hub for health, wellness, water safety and recreation, fostering physical activity, skill development and community bonding. A major milestone in this transformative project is the generous $500,000 donation from Adventist Health Tillamook for a therapy pool within the center. This significant contribution not only showcases their commitment to our community’s well-being but also underscores their dedication to a healthier lifestyle for all. The Adventist Health Tillamook Therapy Pool stands as a testament to the collaborative spirit driving positive change. Our deepest gratitude goes to Adventist Health Tillamook for their visionary leadership and unwavering support, leaving an enduring impact on countless lives benefiting from therapeutic services in the Aquatics Center.”
