Campus Cabana

Welcome to Campus Cabana, a not-for-profit summer swim club that has been a cornerstone of community life in Towson, Maryland, for over 60 years. Founded in 1960 by visionaries Ralph DeChiaro and Anthony Sanzo, Campus Cabana was initially an exclusive amenity for local residents. Today, it has blossomed into a beloved communal asset that serves families and individuals from Towson and beyond.

A Turning Point in History

In the early years, the pool was operated by Maryland Pools and catered to a growing membership. However, in 1981, a monumental shift occurred. Vince Carlin, Dick Banks, Bob Breschi, and other community members spearheaded a movement to purchase the pool and transform it into a member-owned haven. Thus, Campus Cabana, Inc. was born, symbolizing more than just a property transaction-it embodied the spirit and dedication of the community.

Our Evolution

Over the decades, Campus Cabana has evolved and adapted, reflecting the growth of the community. Renovations and upgrades are a constant, ensuring a safe, modern, and enjoyable environment for all members. We honor our rich history while embracing the future, always with the aim of enhancing member experiences.

More Than a Pool

Campus Cabana is much more than a swimming facility. It's a vibrant hub of activity that fosters friendships and community spirit during the summer months. From the competitive spirit of the Campus Cabana Seahorses swim team to casual swims, social gatherings, and festive celebrations, our pool is the backdrop for summer's most cherished memories.

Our Commitment to the Community

Our dedicated Board of Directors and volunteers are committed to preserving more than just a swimming facility-we are nurturing a legacy. Campus Cabana stands as a testament to community spirit. Each splash tells a story, and every swimmer is part of our extended family. Join us in continuing to make waves and shaping the future of Campus Cabana!
