We had our inaguaral dip in the city pools this weekend.  Our pool of choice is Riverview Park up in Observatory Hill.  Its a really nice pool and rarely crowded.  Most of the time there are less than 25 other people there. 

You can buy family pool passes for $60.00 that are good all season and in the winter at Oliver Bath House.  And YES they recognize domestic partnerships. 

We went all last summer and it was great.  Just run home from work, change and in 10 minutes we are there.  Zip.  Nothing to it. I can't imagine dealing with the hassle of getting my own pool when I can do this. 

Most of the life guard staff are teachers and crossing guards so they are especially good at dealing with kids. 

You should try it!
