Montgomery Village News Articles
Swim team registration open
Village swim teams provide one of the popular summer activities for Village children ages 4 to 18 (as of June 1 of the current year) whose families are members of Montgomery Village Foundation (MVF) pools. Montgomery Village Swim Teams are run by parent volunteers, not by MVF.
How do you become a member of the pool and which swim team do you belong to? Homeowners in good standing with MVF pay a quarterly assessment that includes access to the pools and community centers and are members of the pools. Families who live in condominiums or apartments and do not pay the assessment for pools and community centers but wish to join a swim team can “buy in” and purchase an MVF Pool Membership or a Swim Team Only pass. A valid MVF Pool Pass is required for entry. Additional swim team registration fees also apply.
For more information, see the list below or visit www.montgomeryvillage.com and hover over Recreation in the blue navigation bar. Then select Pools & Swimming, and then select Swim Team Information in the green menu on the right to learn which swim team your community belongs to.
