POOLS

Heading to an Ocean Pines pool this holiday weekend? Make sure you plan your day early! If the pools reach capacity (a regulation set by the Fire Marshall), then we may have to temporarily stop granting admission. Although we'd love to be able to accommodate all of our guests, we do need to keep our pools safe for all of our visitors and to follow the rules and protocol that have been set for us. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding!
