Safety routines
Sign-in and the deck
Swimmers sign in at the front desk, rinse at the showers and wait on the bench until their instructor calls their level. Walking feet on the deck, every time.
Parents on site
A parent or guardian stays at the pool during every class, on the bench behind the glass or on the deck. Lessons are no substitute for adult supervision.
Unwell or closed
Please keep your swimmer home with a fever or a stomach bug, and tell us so we can offer a make-up class. If the pool closes, we text families and make up the class within the same session.
