Pool Notices:
1. Due to heavy traffic during the weekends, we are having to add more chemicals to the pool every Monday morning. The pool cleaning company is usually here between 7:00 am and 9:00 am and recommends no one swim any earlier than 11:00 am on Mondays. To maintain the cleanliness and sanitation of the pool, they also come on Wednesdays and Fridays; however, they are not having to add as much of the chemicals on these days, therefore, it is okay to come anytime after 10am.

2. To make the pool more accessible to our members, we converted to a more community style pool omitting the need for a lifeguard and pool hours. Not having an employee (lifeguard) at the pool to oversee the basic needs has made it more difficult to address problems or concerns. We are asking you, as members, to help us take care of the pool. If you see a problem or have a concern, call the Pro Shop to report it immediately.

3. We now have a sign-in sheet on the bulletin board when you enter the gate. Please sign you and your guests in whenever using the pool.

4. Pool keys may only be signed out Monday - Friday 8:00a - 5:00p in the Administrative office.
