Pool rules update

Please notice the large signs detailing pool rules which our lifeguards and swim instructors are now enforcing. Here is a sampling of the rules which are being newly enforced:

• Children under the age of 5 must be accompanied by parent or guardian* within arms reach (in the water) at all times. (This includes if your child would like to swim before or after swim lessons.)
• Children ages 5 - 7 must have a parent or guardian* on the pool deck.
• Children ages 8 - 12 may be left in the pool area unaccompanied for a maximum of one hour, with approval of the lifeguard on duty. The parent or guardian* must stay in the YMCA building.
• Children ages 5-12 must past a swim test with the lifeguard before swimming in the deep end of the pool.

* A guardian is defined as a responsible party age 18 or older. Babysitters and siblings under the age of 18 are not acceptable guardians.
