FAIRLEA W.Va. (WVDN) – Winter in the Greenbrier Valley has a way of slowing us down. Cold mornings, shorter days, and packed schedules often push movement, connection, and self-care to the bottom of the list. That’s exactly why places like the Greenbrier Valley Aquatic Center matter—especially this time of year. GVAC is more than a pool. It’s a shared space where health, confidence, and community are built every day.

From a child learning to float for the first time, to a senior finding relief through low-impact water exercise, to families carving out time together, the center serves residents at every stage of life. In a season when outdoor activity becomes harder, access to safe, warm, and inclusive recreation isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Aquatic movement supports physical health, mental wellness, and injury prevention, while also offering something just as important in winter: human connection.

GVAC features a warm-water therapy pool, a competition pool for lap swimming, a recreational pool, a state-of-the-art fitness studio for strength, flexibility, and cardio workouts, a comfortable lounge for relaxation, an event space, a terrace with lounge seating, a summer splash pad, and a seasonal concession stand.

For many, GVAC is the first step toward a healthier lifestyle—and sometimes the only accessible option. As a community-owned and community-supported facility, GVAC reflects the values of the Greenbrier Valley: resilience, care for one another, and a belief that everyone deserves access to wellness. For business owners, GVAC is more than a facility—it’s a powerful employee retention tool. Corporate memberships give your team access to our amenities, boosting morale, enhancing productivity, and supporting work-life balance. Invest in your people in ways that go beyond traditional benefits. Explore all of our 2026 membership deals, running now.
