Pool Policies:
Thunder/Lightning
In the event that thunder is heard or lightning is detected within a *12-mile radius of the facility, the pool will be cleared. The pool will remain closed for 30 minutes following each sound of thunder or until lighting is no longer within a *12-mile radius of the facility.
*Lightning radius is determined by Strike Alert Device and WeatherBug app.
Rain
When rainfall is heavy enough that the bottom of the pool is not clearly visible, the Swim Center will close. The facility will re-open once the bottom of the pool is visible, and lifeguard staff have returned to the stand.
Other Factors
Despite best planning, training, and preparation, there is always the possibility that an issue may arise (i.e. equipment failure, repairs, etc.).
Water chemistry is tested every two (2) hours the facility is open to ensure proper chlorination. Should we suspect any issues or immediate change to the water’s chemistry, the pool(s) will immediately close until the necessary actions are taken for the pool to return to a safe swimming environment.

Volleyball Court
Washer Pits
