Merrimack Park Recreation Association (MPRA) is a 300-family owned cooperative club, governed by these bylaws. Recent financial statements can be viewed here as well as the Merrimack 2025 Annual Meeting Minutes. As of February 2026, the value of an Equity Member deposit is $2,500 that guarantees your swimming privileges every year and confers voting rights on major decisions which affect the pool. You will pay annual summer dues, which are set by the Board of Directors at a discounted rate.

The 2026 Equity Member season dues are $435 for the first adult immediate family member residing in your household and $115 for each of the next three additional immediate family member swimmers in the household. There is no charge for additional immediate family members residing in your household beyond the first four, or children born after 5/09/2024. The Caregiver fee, regardless of whether they swim, for Equity Members is $115. Season dues not received by the deadline are subject to a $100 late fee before accounts are closed. The reinstatement fee is $200.

The fee to maintain your membership but be inactive for the summer is $350 and is limited to three season waivers during the lifetime of a membership. This policy began in 2018 but 2020 and 2021 waivers do not count against the lifetime limit due to Covid. Equity Members who are away for a season may pay the waiver to go inactive and transfer their swim privileges to renters (counting against the lifetime waiver limit). Renters must apply to the waitlist and will pay the Full Summer season dues.

When and if a member wishes to redeem their equity share, contact Membership@MerrimackPool.org. We welcome applications for future seasons. Contact Membership@MerrimackPool.org for questions about Equity Membership.
