Love our pool! Can't wait for the summer to begin again. Everyone is like family. Adult Volunteers run the pool and keep it going year-after-year. (Maybe I shouldn't let the secret out but... ) half the time, in the evenings, I get the pool to myself and swim laps! It's usually me and a couple of lifeguards. It's amazing to see these kids grow up from swim team, to gate guards, to lifeguards to Adult Swim cohorts. Again... it's like a family!!! And note to all: Yes, at :45 of each hour, the lifeguards come off the stand (take a well-deserved break) and it's Adult Only Swim for 15 minutes. At :00 of each hour, they are back on the stand and ready to watch our kids again.
This is an awesome neighborhood pool! It's not just a "pool" but a social center for the neighborhoods in the whole Rockwood area. You don't have to live here to be a part of it either. We have a large group of members from in and outside of the neighborhood who are passionate about making this pool the best in the area. Volunteers enthusiastically do improvement projects and organize social events, we have awesome cookouts for holidays, host parties, and do special events like movie nights and adult-only shrimp boils and float nights. We have a small but mighty swim team that is open to anyone who wants to join. The best thing about our team size is that since we're a small team, our meets don't last until 11 or 12 like some of the large groups out there! Come join us!
It's a great community pool. There are plenty of social activities that happen there. The staff are friendly. And the people that join their are pretty laid back. They also have a swim team. There's basketball court as well as other outdoor activities available. It's a well-run organization. There's plenty of contact by email and on social media.
Became a pool member in 2022. Will continue to be a member as long as we live here. My two kids (2 & 4) started off in the kiddy pool and have since migrated to the big pool. They have met several friends there. The pool is well managed and have plenty of events throughout the season for both kids and adults. Very reasonably priced for a pool. They also have a swim team.
We have been members of this pool for 3 years and I must confess that it is not the largest nor the fanciest pool in the area. However, the staff and members maintain it beautifully and more than compensate for some people’s high standards. If you are looking for a very affordable membership option and a time over the summer to create wonderful family memories, this is the pool for you. Swim team is also a plus for us—highlight of the summer.
