Pool Reminders:1) Please remember to help our staff and the environment
by bringing refillable water bottles for the new cooler atthe pool entrance. A pool deck free of plastic cups and
bottles is a happy pool deck.2) Please help keep the pool as clean as possible by usingthe shower installed last year before you go in the pool. If
you come straight from the beach, your child may lookclean, but please rinse the sand from inside their bathing
suit. This goes a long way to help keep the pool free ofsand.
3) The new gate connecting the pool to the bluff is for staffonly!! Don't find yourself in a time out. Avoid the gate.
4) Please remember there is no eating or glass permittedin the pool area.
Happy swimming and Happy summer!
