Fallsmead Sharks Swim Team Summer Info
March 31, 2022
The Fallsmead Sharks are a small, family-oriented and friendly swim team. We swim in the Montgomery County Swim League and provide a wonderful social and recreational opportunity for children of all ages within our neighborhood. The swim season runs from Memorial Day through mid-late July and we have swim programs that are tailored for different ability levels within our preteam and main team.
This will be our 50th year as a team! We hope to plan celebratory events for the team, neighborhood and alumni -
check our website for updates, and please contact us if you are interested in helping to plan for this monumental season!
If you are interested in signing your child up for a fun-packed swim team season with the Fallsmead Sharks this summer, please
check out our website where you can find a draft calendar,
FAQs, registration and contact information, as well as everything else you need to know about the team.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone at the pool this summer! Whether you’re on the team or not, come on down during a pep rally or swim meet to socialize and support The Sharks!
Trucks in Fallsmead
January 21, 2021
The Board of Directors adopted in December 2020 a new "Overnight Garaging of Trucks & Commercial Vehicles Rule & Regulation" regarding the interpretation of Article VII, Section 4 of the Covenants that address overnight parking of commercial vehicles and trucks to define the terms “commercial vehicles” and “trucks” as used in the Covenants.
Under the new Rule and Regulation, the following vehicles are required to be garaged overnight:
- Commercial vehicles;
- Vehicles with a gross vehicle weight (GVW) rating of 8,500 pounds or greater; and
- Any vehicle with a GVW rating under 8,500 pounds with an exposed flat/cargo bed, and/or physical divider between the passenger cab area and the other portion of the vehicle, unless the flat/cargo bed is covered with a fitted and intact covering, such as a tonneau cover or cap no higher than the cab, provided the covering is used to cover the flat/cargo bed overnight, or the flat/cargo bed is kept empty overnight.
Trucks as defined in the new Rule and Regulation with a GVW under 8,500 do NOT have to be garaged overnight if they have a cover over their cargo bed or their truck bed is empty.
