The district’s boundaries encompass and estimated area of 840 square miles in Eagle County, Colorado including the communities of Eagle, Edwards, Gypsum, Bond, McCoy, Cordillera, Lake Creek and Wolcott.

The Eagle Pool & Ice Rink is a hot spot year-round.  During the summer months, they offer a full size outdoor leisure aquatic center, tennis courts and outdoor bike park.  The Aquatics area features a zero-depth play area with  "Willy the Frog slide" for small children, a vortex pool, umbrella spray feature, 6 lane lap pool, 150 ft water slide and diving board.  During the fall/winter months, they have an indoor NHL size Ice Rink. There is always something exciting to do!
