Randall Recreation Center

The swimming pool, which is the only part of the recreation center that I used, was fantastic. Like all DC public swimming pools it was free to use. It was clean and there were about 40 lawn chairs for reclining by the water. The showers were all warm and work well after I swim in the lifeguards were both pleasant and helpful. The pool has a nice view of the baseball field and there was a game being played while I was there. It also looks out over 395 overpass, some nice trees and of course S. Capitol St. the water itself was refreshing and clean and awesome. One drawback there’s no lap swim to speak of so this pool is mostly just about cooling off and frolicking.
