Members and guests are required to observe these rules and obey the instructions of the Aquatics Staff. Those individuals violating these rules and jeopardizing the safety of themselves and/or others are subject to suspension or loss of membership. As per state law the pool may be closed when deemed necessary for the health, welfare, and/or safety of the patrons. At any time the on-duty lifeguard may request that patrons perform a swim test. This test is used to evaluate a swimmer's level of ability AND level of fatigue. This test consists of the swimmer swimming the width of the pool on his/her stomach and his/her back with a strong supporting kick and floating on his/her back for 30 seconds without moving. Individuals who pass the swim test with a flotation aid may use the shallow end. Supervision of children is the responsibility of a legal guardian. An adult must accompany all children in the water under the age of 3 years or who are unable to pass the swim test. Families are encouraged to bring US Coast Guard approved PFDs. Inflatable flotation devices are NOT permitted in the pool. Individuals who need a swim aid must remain in the shallow end of the pool. All individuals who are not toilet trained or have been recently toilet trained MUST wear a swim diaper while in the pool. WALK AT ALL TIMES on the pool deck and in the locker rooms. No one is permitted into the pool area with open cuts or blisters, inflamed eyes, contagious skin rashes, or any communicable diseases. Keep food, drinks, candy, tobacco, or gum out of the pool.

During periods of high usage the lifeguard may ask you to change lanes as the swimmers enter or leave the facility.
