Swim Team registration
Village swim teams provide one of the perennial favorite 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.
But how do you become a member of the pool and which swim team do you belong to? Most homeowners in good standing with Montgomery Village Foundation (MVF) pay a quarterly assessment for pools and community centers, and are a member 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 Activity Card with annual validation sticker is required for entry. Additional swim team registration fees apply.
For more information, see the list below or visit www.montgomeryvillage.com for the swim team your community belongs to. Residents can also call the MVF Office at 301-948-0110 for more information.
