Penn Valley Athletic Club is a budget friendly private community club. Members are provided a specific number of Guest Passes that can be used during the season. Utilizing the Guest Passes, a non-member can attend the club with a Member of good standing. Review our Guest Policy found on our Membership page for further details and restrictions. Special events allow for guest admittance for a nominal price. This includes community parties, teen parties, private parties, etc. Please see the front desk for details.

Each season, our goal is to open Memorial Day Weekend. Any delays to this would be appropriately communicated to our members and prospective members.

12pm-8pm daily. Exceptions to the normal operating hours will we highlighted on our website calendar, member email communication, social media, newsletter, and/or posted at the front desk.

Inclement weather is the primary reason for closures during normal operating hours. During storms, nobody is allowed in the pool, on the pool deck, on the basketball court, on the tennis court, or on the volleyball court. If these storms show no sign of letting up, we will shut down for the safety of our staff and members. We will attempt to communicate closures as soon as safely possible. Additionally, the PVAC Swim Team may host a Swim Meet on a weeknight evening. Although the pool will be closed for just a couple hours, we encourage Members to attend a highly competitive sporting event. No Admission Fee!

You do not have to be a member to host a party at PVAC, but Members receive discounted prices for hosting parties. Non-member hosted parties must abide by all of the facility rules, without exception. Non-member parties will not be permitted to rent out the entire facility exclusively. These parties must coincide with daily member attendance. Please use this contact form to start the process of hosting a party. Member hosted parties are permitted to have non-members attend. See the front desk for details.

We have an extensive snack bar menu. Some hot foods include hot dogs, cheese sticks, fresh cut potato fries, funnel cakes, and personal pizzas. Cold items include popsicles, ice cream bars, and our Famous Snow Cones! Bagged snacks are also available, as well as a generous list of refreshments. Themed events may include specials such as pierogis, pulled pork, walking tacos, hamburgers, build your own ice cream sundaes, and so much more.

Group or Private Lesson signups are to happen at the front desk - either in person or calling during normal operating hours. Did you know that non-members are also able to participate in our swim lessons, classes, and clinics?!

We do not require a specific approved flotation device. We do recommend using a device that has been approved by the American Red Cross. No matter the device used, please make sure that it is properly functioning before each use. Additionally, if your child cannot swim independently, with or without a device, our staff and lifeguards will require that a parent must be within arms reach of that child at all times while in the main pool. Members that require a flotation device to stay afloat are not permitted in the diving well. Additionally, they are not allowed to jump off the diving board with a flotation device on. Please see the published Facility Rules for full details regarding flotation devices.

We are not permitting recreational pool floats at the pool this season, including during Moonlight Swim. Pool noodles are permitted (just be aware of your surroundings when having a pool noodle sword fight). Why are we not permitting recreational pool floats this year? The safety of our members and guests is our #1 priority. Recreational floats, inflatables, and especially foam bead filled floats pose a great risk for younger swimmers to get trapped under. Additionally, larger floats block lifeguard view of the pool, preventing them from performing their essential duties. We understand recreational floats were a fun part of Moonlight Swim, but you and your child's safety takes priority above all else.

PVAC is a great place for young adults to learn responsibility, commitment, and accountability. For many, it is their first job. PVAC will post on our Jobs page and Social Media when there are any job openings.
