Does anyone know where one might go to go swimming if the weather allows us such frivolties while we are at the rally? :dance

Water parks are the preferred venue for the Mrs and I. :thumb

TIA
 
Just ride north of the rally site approx. 300 miles to Kings Island(near Cinn,OH) for a great water park...:wave
 
There is one in Jonesborough, TN about 20 miles or so from the rally. Jonesborough is located on hwy. 11E and the water park is a few miles south of town directly off 11E.
 
Remember Fredricksburg:)

That National Rally, we had our OWN giant size pool on the grounds:). I think its the only time we had this. Boy, was that nice:)'96 I think. Randy:usa

Yikes, the dollywood water park is not cheap
one day pass Regular (Ages 12 - 59) $43.60 so for two adults it nearly $100 to swim.
Is there anywhere that you can swim for free? Public beach at the river maybe?
Just wondering.
The Wetlands at Jonesborough is reasonable at Adults (13 years and up) $11.

Thanks Jason!
I had done some searching but was not having much luck. You got me pointed to the right place and I found the Boone Reservoir. About a mile or so from the rally site. Appears to be a free beach! Which is just my style.
Go approximately 1 mile, cross the Holston River and turn right at the Reservoir sign.

Thanks again.

Sounds like an perfect afternoon to me!
 
If the rally were today, you would not have needed a swimming pool. About 2 inches of rain in 40 minutes today with a little hail thrown in for good measure!!
 
Try the natural water park in Nantahala, NC.... cold water and easy rafting, great food and fun to watch kayakers. go on...you know you want to!:thumb
 
If you want a little riding with your swimming, there are two large and beautiful lakes pretty near to the rally:

Lake Watauga this is a beautiful lake, about a half hour from the rally.

Holston Lake

both are TVA lakes.
