*Also, non-swimming children AND children who are using a flotation device MUST have an adult within arms reach in the pool with them at all times.
*Please remind your children not to touch or hang on the basketball hoops, basketball net or volleyball net. This damages the equipment.
*Please review your member account and remove any family member who does not actually reside in your home and update any out of date pictures. We really appreciate your assistance with this matter.
*Sometimes emails take a while to get to you after we send them so please keep an eye on the website and facebook page for updates (especially in inclement weather).
Have a great day!
