Do you recognize any of the Vienna students.
"Working at the carwash," no wait, working at the swimming pool!!!

More than a pool. More than a summer job. This is opportunity in action. 🏊 As the 2026 season at Dixon Springs State Park Pool & Concession has come to an end, we’re proud of what happened both in and around the water this summer.

Over 86 days, Dixon Springs Pool welcomed 7,894 visitors plus 26 private parties—bringing families and visitors to our region, supporting recreation and tourism, and contributing to the local economy.

But one of the numbers we're most proud of is 3,305 hours of opportunity.

Those are the hours worked by students and Arrowleaf team members with disabilities this season—real jobs, real paychecks, real experience, and the opportunity to build skills and confidence while contributing to a place enjoyed by thousands of people.

One of those student workers, Leah Philpott of Vienna High School, worked an incredible 393.5 hours, earning the title of our 2026 Student Worker Summer Hours Champion! 👏

And while July 3 brought our largest crowd of the summer with 230 visitors, another number deserves its own recognition: 1,442 orders of nachos. Cheese, BBQ pork, sour cream, jalapeños—or none of the above—the only rule was to serve ’em hot! 😄

Managing Dixon Springs Pool and Concession for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources is a great example of what Arrowleaf's mission can look like in action: creating opportunities for people, strengthening our communities, and contributing to a vibrant Southern Illinois.

To every student worker, employee, visitor, family, and community member who made this season possible—thank you for a great summer at Dixon Springs! ☀️🏊‍♀️

Eagle + Saluki = SUCCESS!
