Not sure if we'll join somewhere this summer or just go to the local place when we can. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2179167 Thu, 14 May 2015 23:22:45 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2179167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! We belong to a swim and tennis club because DH and I both play tennis year-round! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178696 Thu, 14 May 2015 15:54:51 +0000 blackbird 2178696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is, but it's $300/summer and the other public pools nearby are more kid friendly. Plus for $7/visit, we don't spend more than $100 all summer. Ours have slides and water playgrounds....perfect for toddlers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178644 Thu, 14 May 2015 15:23:40 +0000 andthewildones 2178644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: my guy is convinced public pools are disgusting. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178610 Thu, 14 May 2015 15:11:16 +0000 MaryM 2178610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I lived in an apartment for 4 years and we backed right up to the pool and I only went there once. so it's never really been worth it to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178580 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:56:16 +0000 Corduroy 2178580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a pool about two blocks away. Family membership is $500 for May-September. I think we will join next year or the year after. Everyone else in the neighborhood with kids belongs. I'm due in June so between pp stuff and adjusting to baby I don't see how it could be worth it this year even if DH took DD (2yo) frequently.</p> <p>There is a reservoir about a mile away from us. It is $3/person/swim (we get a family seasonal pass). We'll stick to that this year and maybe next year. Either way we'll need swim lessons somewhere else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178563 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:50:12 +0000 LAZB 2178563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a pool, so no, but when lo is older we will join the neighborhood pool for swim team, social interactions, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178510 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:34:35 +0000 ShootingStar 2178510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The closest community pool and is thousands of dollars for the year, so we won't be joining any time soon. There is a free splashpad in a park not too far away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178501 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:31:10 +0000 edelweiss 2178501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we just joined a pool. i loved going to the pool growing up and even though LO is young (2 years old), he can go in the kiddie pool and i can take him in the big pool. also the pools around here have long waiting lists (the one closest to us is 3+ years!) so i figured we should join when a membership became available. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178491 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:28:23 +0000 Littlebit 2178491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to join one next year for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178487 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:27:46 +0000 regberadaisy 2178487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: that's ridiculous :shocked: </p> <p>@rachiecakes: I wished there was a splash pad within walking distance or heck 5 min driving distance! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178484 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:25:59 +0000 looch 2178484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to belong to one when I was a kid, eventually I even lifeguarded there.</p> <p>I would totally have joined, except it's closed now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178459 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:16:07 +0000 jhd 2178459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my gym has indoor and outdoor pools and I can take LO during family swim times </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178455 Thu, 14 May 2015 14:13:51 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2178455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably not... The one in our area has a 10+ year waiting list and a $5000 joining fee.

There are also several swim teams that I'd love for them to join when they're older, if they're interested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178408 Thu, 14 May 2015 13:55:47 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2178408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a neighborhood pool. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-belong-to-or-will-you-join-a-pool#post-2178407 Thu, 14 May 2015 13:55:28 +0000 Keybee 2178407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have access to neighborhood pools.

I don't think it would be worth it to become a member of a pool until my daughter is swim team age with our community pool. Someday we will so she can do swim team, though. </p>
