PERMANENT NAME FOR DESTIN FACILITY ANNOUNCED
Taj Renee Community Aquatic Center nickname "The Taj"
Our Destin facility will now be called the TAJ RENEE COMMUNITY AQUATIC CENTER. The name was officially presented at the 2022 Sip & Splash Aquatic Affair. A remarkable woman named Taj Renee Oliver Brown inspired our naming sponsor to use her first and middle name, which mean "Love Reborn" as a loving tribute to Taj and the many generous and supportive people who have helped the ECFF's vision become reality.
