A new chapter for active adults in Bentonville, Arkansas, begins today.

The Bentonville Adult Recreation Center was designed as a dedicated wellness and social destination for residents ages 50+, providing opportunities to stay active, connected, and engaged in the heart of downtown Bentonville.

The project transformed and expanded the existing Parks and Recreation Administration Building into a vibrant community hub featuring a natatorium, gymnasium, indoor track, fitness and group fitness spaces, multipurpose rooms, outdoor pickleball courts, a café, and inviting gathering spaces.

We’re proud to celebrate this milestone alongside the City of Bentonville, Hight Jackson Associates, project partners, and the many community members whose vision helped bring this facility to life.

Congratulations to the City of Bentonville on creating a place where wellness, recreation, and community come together for generations to come.

At The Well, inclusivity becomes part of the story.

Inspired by the aerial tapestry of Hilliard’s farm fields, the integrated screens weave movement, light, and information into a layered visual experience. These designs connect people to place in a way that feels both modern and rooted.

We’re proud to celebrate the grand opening of the South Lake Tahoe Recreation & Aquatics Center, a major new investment in community wellness and connection.

Opened on April 18, the 64,000-square-foot, multigenerational facility brings together fitness, aquatics, and community spaces designed for all ages and abilities. Designed with a central gathering place as it’s hub, with views of the pines and sparkling Lake Tahoe, the amenities include a 6-lane lap pool, 2,500 SF activity pool with party room, two-court gymnasium for basketball, volleyball, and pickleball, fitness and weight areas, group exercise studio, arts and crafts spaces, and senior programming. A second-level event center with a deck overlooking Lake Tahoe provides a special venue for community gatherings.

From the opening ceremony to tours and community celebrations, the day marked the start of a vibrant new hub for residents and visitors alike. We’re honored to have partnered with the City of South Lake Tahoe alongside , CORE Construction, and the broader consultant team to bring this vision to life—a place rooted in the heart of its people that celebrates place and the spirit of Lake Tahoe.
