Frostburg Pool

The Frostburg Pool is a seasonal pool owned by the City of Frostburg and managed & operated by the Frostburg Parks & Recreation Department. The pool season typically runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day of each year. The end of the season is followed by the annual Frostburg Dog Splash at the pool on Saturday and Sunday, the weekend after Labor Day.

The Frostburg Pool is located at at 200 South Water Street in Frostburg Community Park.  It was originally dug out by local coal miners in the spring of 1921 during a miner strike.  They decided to create a swimming hole next to Sand Spring Run for the locals. The concrete walls of the pool today cover the stone walls constructed by the miners in 1921.  That's why it has an irregular seven-sided shape.  It holds approximately 420,000 gallons of water and is nearly one-third of an acre in size.  The pool's zero depth entry is ADA compliant as the pool gradually slopes past the water play features into the diving well.  This allows kids of all ages and swimming abilities to use in the same pool.  The pool offers daily admission rates as well as season passes and 15 admission punch passes which can be purchased as well at City Hall (37 South Broadway). The pool operating schedule for 2023 is as follows:
