The impact the Stayton Family Memorial Pool has had on Mya Joyce’s life is immense.
She was 1 when she went there for swim lessons for the first time. Later, she competed for Stayton Manta Ray Swim Club. She had her first job as a lifeguard until the pool was forced to close in 2020 due to COVID-19-related restrictions.

“Pretty much every single kid in this community has learned to some extent in that pool,” said Joyce, a senior at Stayton High School. “It’s so incredible what our pool has done.”
