Patton Pool and Whitmire Activity Center

Patton Pool and the Whitmire Activity Center were both damaged during Hurricane Helene. They cannot reopen without major renovation or rebuilding. City staff are working through the process with insurance and FEMA. The Hendersonville City Council sees this as an opportunity to hear from the community, evaluate local needs, and plan for something even better.

Hurricane Helene caused major damage to both the Patton Pool and pool building in Patton Park and the Whitmire Activity Center and shuffleboard courts in Toms Park. The City of Hendersonville entered into a contract with CPL architects for the Patton and Whitmire redesign process.
