Our Address is 5600 Harrodsburg Road, Nicholasville, KY 40356 - you will turn onto Clubhouse Blvd from Harrodsburg Rd. From there a parking attendant will direct you where to park depending on availability of parking lot space. See the map below, green squares indicate available parking space for swim meets.

The pool is on Keene Manor Circle (take a right at the end of Clubhouse Dr.) next to CORE Fitness.

*If getting directions from GPS, make sure it is not directing you to Avenue of Champions, which is where the KT offices are. The pool can only be accessed from the Harrodsburg Rd entrance, if your GPS shows a different way, that is a private driveway and is not accessible.

Please read all the way through this email, as some details are different than a typical swim meet in keeping with Keene Trace's Club policy and offerings through The Landing Restaurant. No outside food or drinks (including personal water bottles) and no alcohol is permitted. Free bottled water will be available in iced coolers on the pool deck all night to swimmers and spectators, as well as water from The Landing Restaurant and an ice/water machine near the entrance to the pool deck (in a recessed area opposite the scoring table).

*Please let family members who don't receive team emails know about this policy

Swimmers may bring personal water/sports drinks and snacks needed to refuel between races.

Arrival

We have several parking lots available and 2 overflow parking lots. Please only park in the green designated spots seen below. PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON THE STREET or walk through any yards upon arrival or departure. Parking attendants will direct you when you arrive.

Copperfield's team area will be to the right of our resort style pool as you enter. Our team area is on the side near the Landing. You can set up chairs/pop-up tents as necessary in that area. There will be a STANDING area only between the resort style pool and competition pool. PLEASE WATCH YOUR SWIMMER THEN MOVE AWAY WHEN YOUR SWIMMER IS FINISHED.

The resort style pool will be CLOSED for the swim meet!

Food and Drinks

There will be a grab and go menu located at The Landing (Keene’s restaurant) adjacent to the pool. Swimmers and families can purchase dinner and drinks at their convenience.

We ask that you kindly NOT BRING IN OUTSIDE FOOD, DRINKS, or COOLERS TO THE POOL DECK. Staff will direct you to leave the pool area if you have these items, so please leave them in your car if you bring them.

non-alcoholic beverages and swimmers can go order here in their suits.
