BRRRR– It is so hard to think right now that it will EVER be Summertime Again! But the Oakview Recreation Corporation is getting an early start planning their 50th Anniversary Season and they would like your HELP! 
The Oakview Pool was the first Community Neighborhood Swimming Pool in Mongomery County. The Oakview Pool opened in 1957. The pool was built and is still owned by the Oakview Recreation Corporation a group of Oakview Residents. The circa late 1950’s pool was refurbished by the Corporation in 2004. Oakview Pool is home to the OAKVIEW OCTOPI, a very active swim team that competes with other swim teams in Mongomery County. This year, they mark their 50th Aniversary. Along with their regularly scheduled Annual Community Day in early June, the Oakview Pool is planning a Big 50th Aniversary Event for Pool Members.
In honor of their 50th year the Recreation Corporation is putting together a scrap book for a trip down memory lane. The Board members would like help finding old photographs and memorabilia for the scrapbook. If you, or your relatives, or
