Flagler Fluid Swimming would like to take over operations of the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club.

Carrie Purdy, owner and coach of Flagler Fluid swim club spoke to the Flagler County School Board during public comment at the board’s workshop on May 7, offering to run the facility. Flagler Fluid would provide swim lessons and after-school programs for students and also offer gym memberships and swim programs for adults during school hours, she said.

The School Board voted 3-2 to discontinue public gym and pool memberships at the facility at the end of June. After its contracts run out with insurance companies that provide gym use for their customers, the board plans to close the gym and maintain the pool for student use and rentals. Currently, Flagler Fluid and the Synchro Belles artistic swimming club rent the pool.
