Manager’s Reminders
As the full summer season schedule kicks off on Saturday, June 20th, we want to share these five reminders:
#5 |
Take care of the games |
|
Please be gentle with the play items (ping pong, foosball, corn hole and badminton). These are communal items, and if they are unusable, it affects others in the community. (Please pass this reminder on to your children as well.)
|
|
#4 |
Safety Breaks at Quarter to each hour
|
|
Guards will signal a fifteen minute safety break at a quarter to each hour throughout the day. The safety break called a quarter hour to closing shall act as a reminder that members and guests should prepare to leave the premises by closing time. (Throughout the day, the manager on duty may forgo a safety break and permit the pools to remain open for swimmers of all ages.)
