The Colony Pool Club

Established in 1928 as a local swim club, the Colony Pool Club has grown into a beloved Chatham Township landmark known for generations of summer family fun. Through a partnership between Chatham Township and the Madison Area YMCA, the Colony Pool will continue to serve its members while benefiting from experienced aquatic leadership, enhanced water safety practices, and expanded opportunities for swimmers of all ages.

Located in the heart of Chatham Township, the Club features amenities and special events of interest to families, seniors, and young adults alike. If you’re looking to experience an enjoyable summer — resting your feet or building sandcastles in over 8,300 square feet of soft beach sand, exercising in one of our six 25-meter swimming lanes, or attending a family BBQ or Sunday float days, then The Colony Pool Club is your summer family getaway!
