Prince William County has three outdoor community pools, plus Veterans Park Pool which is an outdoor community pool with a twisting waterslide. Please check individual sites for scheduled events.
Swimwear Guidelines - Please Read
Proper swim attire is required in all pools. The intent of enforcing a swim attire policy is to maintain a clean, safe and inviting environment for our patrons. Clothing, other than swimwear, can create problems with water clarity, disinfectant systems, and filtration. Prince William County Parks & Recreation staff have the right to deny anyone use of pools for non-approved swimwear.
Birchdale is a great neighborhood pool located in Dale City featuring a full service concessions area, a diving board, and a gated baby pool for our small swimmers. A local family favorite!
