POOL/SLIDE RULES 2023

 

• Deep Water Test Rule: As a member anyone under the age of 12, will be required to take the deep-water test. If you cannot pass the test you will be required to stay in the shallow end of the pool which is roped off for your protection.

• The deep water test can be given to any one of any age so please let us know if you feel like you need to take the test. The test will be administered two times per week if your child does not pass.

• Wristbands will also be available to purchase at the front desk as an additional precaution. The lifeguards know that if they see the wristband, that person has not passed the test and must stay in the shallow end of the pool.

• Adult Supervision: All adults with small children are responsible for watching their young children while here at the facility. Please make sure to keep a close eye on them at all times. Any child left unsupervised causes a higher risk for injury and is unsafe. Membership can be revoked if this rule is not followed.

• Deep End of Pool: The deep end of the pool gets deeper as you walk in because of the angled sides, so please be careful as you walk towards the center of the pool.

Any one that does not follow this rule will be told to go to the roped off section of the pool (shallow end). Adults are only allowed to have one child at a time with them.

• Potty Training: Children that are not potty trained will be required to wear a swim diaper. Also if you have a young child please remind them to use the restroom before they go swimming.
