finding outdoor year round pools in suburban maryland
Former Member
Hello, I just discovered this website while searching for outdoor year-round pools in suburban Maryland (just north of D.C.). I live in Frederick, MD, and my pool covers over with a bubble in winter--the bubble just went up. BUMMER! Does ANYONE know of an outdoor year-round pool close to or in Frederick? I do know of the Bethesda and Silver Spring YMCA, but they are a little too far to drive, and there is a long waiting list at Bethesda Y. Many thanks!! aandw
Long waiting list at the Bethesda Y??? I walked up one day last spring and signed up. I'd check into that again if I were you (esp since I've put my membership on hold).
Rockville Municipal Swim Center's outdoor pool is still open for a little while longer. I don't know for sure but UMBC's outdoor 50m pool may still be open as well.
Other than the Y's, I think you're SOL. The next closest I can think of is Penn State's 50m pool that usually shuts down ~Dec 1 and is back open again in March.
