Pool Reminders. It’s that time of year again…it’s hot and everyone is looking for ways to cool down and enjoy the summer. With that said, it’s a good time for everyone to remember the rules that govern the swimming pool. Security will be monitoring the pool in an effort to keep the pool safe and enjoyable for all residents.

• Pool hours are 7:00 am to 10:00 am for adult swim only and 10:00 am to 10:00 pm is open swim.

• NO SMOKING, GLASS CONTAINERS, OR PETS ARE ALLOWED anywhere within the recreation center complex.

• Parents or other responsible individuals accompanying small children SHALL NOT leave the children unattended in either the wading pool or main pool and patio areas.

• Small and moderate-sized inflatable toys/balls and personal flotation devices for children are allowed, but not to the interference of other pool users. No other inflatable devices or water guns are allowed.

• No running, drinking, water fighting, diving or pushing into the pool is permitted. No rough or disorderly conduct, loud music, disruptive or abusive language, or littering is permitted.

• Infants, young children and anyone not in control of natural body functions are NOT permitted to use the pool unless they are wearing leak proof, containing garments. No disposable diapers are allowed as they disintegrate and clog the pool filtering system.
