Montgomery County announced on May 18 that in light of COVID-19 restrictions, pools would not open Memorial Day Weekend for the traditional start of summer. The restrictions apply to county pools, private and public community pools, private swim clubs and apartment and condominium complex pools. Montgomery Village Foundation (MVF) will follow these same precautions – MVF pools will not open on Memorial Day Weekend as they have in the past.
However, in anticipation of the ability to open later this season, pools are being prepared as normal. Staff and contractors are working to fix, clean and fill pools to prepare for county inspections. No date has been set to open; MVF will continue to await guidance from the county and state, and open pools when/if safe to do so.
The MVF Board of Directors will be discussing pools at the Thursday, May 28 meeting.
The Montgomery Village Foundation owns and operates six pools during the summer months. Access to pools is with a valid photo activity card, which can be obtained at the MVF Office, 10120 Apple Ridge Road. Non-resident memberships are also available each season.
