Outdoor Pool hours are 10:00 AM-7:00 PM daily. To keep our pool operational during the cold winter months we will be covering the pool overnight and into the morning hours to maintain optimal temperatures and to ensure reliable mechanical function. Hours are subject to change.
The Outdoor Pool Closses if any of the following conditions are met:
- Outside air temperature OR “real feel” (wind chill) is 35 degrees or below
- The water temperature is 75 degrees or below.
- The pool deck (immediately next to the pool) and emergency exists are unable to be cleared of ice and/or snow
- Fog, steam, snow, sleet, and freezing rain above the water line prevent our staff from clearly viewing the swimmers in any area of the pool
For more information or questions, please call 301-881-0100 or email membership@benderjccgw.org.
Please note that the pools close 30 minutes before the building closes.
*To ensure the health and safety of our members, guests, and staff, the Bender JCC may close or delay opening the Outdoor Pool as described above.
