The 90,846 square foot Fountain View Recreation Center is operated by the Carol Stream Park District. Fountain View Recreation Center is the Carol Stream Park District’s flagship recreation center. It opened in September 2013. Funding for the center was approved by residents of Carol Stream Park District in a 2010 referendum. Construction began in October 2012.
The center is home to Fountain View Fitness, Carol Stream’s newest fitness facility. Membership includes access to the 7500 square foot fitness center, the indoor running track, lap swim, fitness classes, aqua fitness classes, and open gym.

Bring your family to Fountain View for fun in the water during designated Leisure Swim Hours, or purchase a pool-only membership for lap swim – two lanes in the 25-yard lap pool kept open for lap swimming any time the pool is open.

The center also has numerous eco-friendly features, such as a geothermal heating/cooling system, and permeable pavers in the parking lot, which has enabled the center to be eligible for a grant from the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation (ICECF). The center is expected to be rated as a LEED silver building.
