Camp Dodge Pool District, Military swimming complex in Johnston, Iowa.

The facility includes a large 2.3 million-gallon swimming pool, a bathing pavilion, and a concrete block concession stand within the Camp Dodge grounds.

The swimming pool district, constructed in 1922, received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 for its military training significance.

The pool served both military personnel and local residents, representing a connection between Camp Dodge and the surrounding Iowa community.

The swimming complex closed permanently in 2001 due to increasing operational costs and safety concerns following an incident at the facility.

The original pool basin has been transformed into an outdoor amphitheater, altering its function while maintaining its historical designation.
