About the Patagonia Regional Aquatics Center (PRAC)

PRAC is a volunteer-run 501c3 non-profit organization that supports the pool of the same name in beautiful Patagonia, AZ, which serves the community in the wider Patagonia Region.

​

The PRAC Pool is the only aquatic facility within walking distance for residents of the incorporated Town of Patagonia and within limited driving distance for residents in the communities of Sonoita and Elgin in southeastern Santa Cruz, Arizona.

​

During the summer we offer 6 days a week of low-cost lap swimming, water aerobics, swim lessons, and general watery fun to communities, and offer summer employment to young adult lifeguards. Beyond the summer we switch into the extended season where the pool is staffed primarily by volunteers. Although our hours are reduced during the extended season, we continue to offer multiple days a week of watery goodness. Our pool is now equipped with a heater which we anticipate will allow us to offer a longer and more enjoyable extended season in 2024!
