Atlee's Friendliest Pool Since 1975

Atlee Recreation Association (ARA) has been the area’s friendliest pool since 1975! We are a community-centered recreation spot for people of all ages. With a current membership of over 200 families, ARA offers seasonal swimming, covered picnic tables, a roomy pavilion with charcoal grills, an extra large pool deck, and a kids playground. In addition, our clubhouse includes a snack bar, restroom with shower facilities, and a multipurpose room that is available for members to rent for private functions.

Atlee Rec is also home to the Atlee Gators swim team, who compete in the Greater Richmond Aquatic League (GRAL).

Atlee Rec is conveniently located off Atlee Station Rd across from Cool Spring Elementary and Chickahominy Middle.

Testimonials

A Worthwhile Investment

“All five of our kids learned to swim at Atlee Rec, have been part of the Gators, and the oldest is currently a lifeguard. A totally worthwhile investment!” 

~Ashely H.

Strong Friendships

“Our family has been ARA members for over 10 years, we have made many friends that have come to feel like family. Sometimes those friendships carry into the off season. Even the friendships that stay within summer pool times, are no less special and remain strong year to year.”

~Chris W.

Life Skills

“Of all the extra curricular activities our daughters are involved in, we value their time at ARA for both recreation and swim team. Swimming isn’t just fun, it’s a critical life skill and one they will carry with them always.”

~Jenn E.
