SINCE 1961

Melrose Paradise Recreation Club

Founded in 1961, Melrose Pool has been a cherished part of the community for generations. Operated as a non-profit organization, the pool is owned and run by its members, creating a welcoming, family-oriented environment where neighbors connect, stay active, and enjoy the summer together. From its early days to today, Melrose has remained committed to fostering a sense of belonging while promoting healthy, outdoor recreation.

The club offers a competitive summer swim team and recreational open swim hours for members and their guests.

Melrose Paradise Recreation Club is a registered non-profit 501(c)(7) organization dedicated to providing summer aquatic training and recreational opportunities in a community-centered setting. The facility features a four-lane, 25-yard swimming pool, a separate baby pool for young swimmers, a sport court, soccer field, and a spacious picnic area. These amenities make Melrose more than just a pool—it is a gathering place where members can relax, socialize, and build lasting memories.

In addition to recreational open swim hours on weekends, Melrose Pool proudly offers a competitive summer swim team that emphasizes skill development, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Members can also enjoy family and group gatherings with on-site barbecue areas, making it easy to spend the entire day together. Whether you come to swim, train, play, or simply unwind, Melrose Pool continues its long-standing tradition of bringing the community together through active, shared experiences.
