I don’t think I’ve ever been there, but $475 for a new family membership (per their website ) very reasonable.

Really? If there is a pool with 8 lanes, I would want them hosting divisional meets.



Do tell.

8 lane pools are faster than 6 lane pools.


The nicest pool is Virginia Run. I wish they would host. TEN lanes and the clubhouse is like an air conditioned hotel.

Somerset Olde Creek. It’s close to Woodson HS in Fairfax, and is not THAT bad but is basic. The same as most of the pools in that area.

SOC's membership fee for returning member is $100 less than other similar pools in that area.

They are a miserable drive away, have a terrible seating set up and the club house is closed unless you work table

Who else has to drive to OKM, or do they have to go to Arlington 6 times (Overlee three times and then to Chesterbrook, DR, and HS?!!)?

Overlee has the other OKM home meet.

To clarify a few things above. Both Old Keene Mill and Overlee are each hosting 2 Saturday meets. Overlee and Tuckahoe will travel to OKM for Saturday meets.
