With two lifeguards always on duty, the DCH pool is a safe and convenient location to learn to swim, cool off, or host a pool party.

DCH is a robust community organization that welcomes people of all ages in Dedham and beyond 

If you walk past the DCH main house and continue past the soccer field, you’ll find the DCH outdoor pool situated right at 225 Ames Street. Equipped with a robust pool house, a large pool deck with a grassy area, and a covered pavilion to enjoy snacks in the shade, the DCH pool is everything you envision a community pool to be and more. During summer weekdays, the pool is used by our campers, eager to improve their swimming skills. Outside of summer camp hours, the pool is available through pool memberships and day passes, swim lessons, exercise classes, and private party rentals. You do not have to be a resident of Dedham to join or use the pool.
