Save Piney Branch Pool

Save Piney Branch Pool

The Issue

Piney Branch Pool is a valuable community resource for residents living in southeastern Montgomery County, MD.  The pool provides a location for swim lessons, swim team practices, water aerobics and other fitness and water safety activities. The pool also provides a location where Piney Branch Elementary School offers free swim lessons to its students, 35.6% of whom receive free and reduced lunch.  These students are offered the opportunity to obtain this necessary life skill when they may not have otherwise. 

The community uses this pool extensively.  Please do not eliminate the $160,000 in funding designated to Piney Branch Pool.
