Safety supervision
Lifeguards are not babysitters! Parents or guardians are the first line of safety supervision by staying within arm’s reach of all accompanying children.
- Children under the age of 8 must always be within arm’s reach of a parent or guardian (15 or older) at all times while using the aquatic facility.
- Children between the ages of 8 and 11 must always be accompanied by a parent or guardian (15 or older) at all times while using the aquatic facility.
- A parent or guardian (15 or older) may only be accompanied by 3 children under the age of 12 while using the aquatic facility.
Please take a thorough, head-to-toe cleansing shower before entering our pool. We look to the public to assist with high standards of hygiene and cleanliness.
