Sleepy Hollow Recreation Association
On March 10, 1959, ground was broken on the 5.5-acre tract of land in the Holmes Run Valley that is now the home to the Sleepy Hollow Recreation Association (SHRA). The pool opened on July 4, 1959, with 350 members and a waiting list of over 100. That summer saw SHRA’s first participation in the Northern Virginia Swim League, and by the next year, the swim team had 87 participants and sent 5 swimmers to All Stars..

Sleepy Hollow Bath and Racquet has something for everyone: three pools, nine tennis courts, beach volleyball, basketball, and more.

If you’re in the mood to kick back and relax, our nine acres of green space, with pavilions and grills to host parties, a professionally managed snack bar, and cabanas for storing your summer gear, provide the perfect complement to your day – or summer – of relaxation. Since 1956, our swim and tennis club has been creating fun in the sun memories for generations of Falls Church families.
