    Wendell Swim Club Location/Directions/Parking

    Wendell Swim Club – 700 Selma Road, Wendell, NC 27591

    Directions – From 540 take US 64/264 east to Exit 429. Turn right at the end of the exit ramp onto eastbound Wendell Boulevard (US 64 Business). Proceed 4 miles on Wendell Boulevard straight into town and turn right onto Selma Road (NC 231). The pool is approximately 1 mile on the left, just outside of the Wendell town limits. Look for a blue and white sign on the left, at the gravel driveway. If you get to Hollybrook Road you've gone too far.

    Parking - Feel free to park on the left or right side of the pool. We will have a volunteer managing traffic and parking so that no one gets blocked into their space or can't leave or park during the meet.
