The Upper County Outdoor Pool is located at 8211 Emory Grove Road in Gaithersburg. Its final day of operation for humans will be Sunday, Aug. 15. Dogs will be permitted to swim from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. on each day of the Pooch Pool Party. The fee for each day is $10 and the number of available slots is limited. Advance registration is required.
Before the pool is cleaned for the winter, dogs get the final swim. Each dog must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Any dog displaying signs of aggression will be asked to leave. Dog owners must be able to provide written proof of a current rabies vaccine before the dogs will be allowed into the event.
