Maplewood Park Recreation Club (Maplewood Pool) was established in the 1950's as the neighborhood pool for the Maplepark Development located off Fishcreek Road in Stow, Ohio.  The developer of this growing neighborhood in Stow built the pool solely for the homeowners of this development. 

Maplewood Pool in Stow, Ohio has always been run by pool members, primarily the elected volunteer Board of Trustees.  In the 1970's, the Board of Trustees decided to open up membership to Maplewood Pool to any family living in Stow, as the children of the original homeowners in the Maplepark Development had left home for college and careers.  Now, memberships to Maplewood Pool in Stow Ohio are open to our neighboring communities of Munroe Falls, Kent, Cuyahoga Falls, Hudson, and Tallmadge.  Welcome!

Presently, Maplewood Pool continues to attract both the lifetime members of the pool (the members of the original families), new and existing families to both the MaplePark Development, and the city of Stow, as well as the original children who first swam at this pool, now with their own families who enjoy swimming where mom or dad grew up.  This is why Maplewood Park Recreation Club is able to keep its membership rates so affordable and is called the "best kept secret in Stow."

In addition, the Maplewood swim team, the Gators, has been competing since the 1970's, and attracts many young swimmers from 6 to 18 years of age.
