Landsdowne has many recreation areas.  For specific questions or to provide comments, please us contact us. 

Thank You!

Basketball Court.  Do you love shooting hoops?  Join fellow players on our court, located off the walking path on the west side behind Morning Ride Circle.  Courts are open from dawn to dusk every day. 

Community Benches and Walking Path.  A 1/2 mile walking path runs the length of Landsdowne through the common area.  Enjoy taking a stroll with fellow residents or with you dogs.  Part of the path adjoins a wooded area.  We often see while tail deer and birds of many different species.  Bluebird houses will be added later this fall.  If you simply wish to "get away" and enjoy being outdoors, please also take time to stop and relax on our many beautiful seating areas located strategically throughout Landsdowne.  And if you want to spend time walking with others, why not start a walking group?

Swimming Pool.  Our community pool is located at 8000 Morning View Lane.  The season runs from Memorial Day through the weekend after Labor Day.  Our pool is a competition length 25 meter pool with 5 swimming lanes and shallow and deeper areas for child play.  We also have a full wading pool for the kids among us.  Our pool is managed by Winkler Pool Company.  Hours are 4pm to 9 pm during the school year and 11 am to 9 pm weekends and when school is out for the summer. 

The Pool Committee works as the community liaison with the Landsdowne Board and Winkler Management.  Pool pass distribution is run through this committee.  A copy of the 2010 Pool Pass Application is available on line. They also schedule water aerobics, swimming lessons and other water related activities.  For additional information, please use the Pool link on the Contact Us page.

Swimming Lessons -- 2010

Swimming lessons will be offered again this summer at the Landsdowne Pool. We are very fortunate to have Lorena Gimenez as our swimming (and water aerobics) instructor again this summer. Lorena is certified by the Red Cross as a swim instructor, lifeguard, and in first aid and AED for infants, children and adults. This will be the second year Lorena has taught swimming at the Landsdowne Pool..
