- Children under 5 years must be accompanied into the facility by a responsible adult 16 yrs and over and be supervised within arm’s reach at all times while in the facility. The parent MUST be in the water, if children are not within arm’s reach of their parent or guardian at all times, they will be removed from the water.
- Children ages 5 to 9 will be issued a wrist band which must be worn at all times.
- If you are not a confident swimmer or have a preexisting medical condition please let our staff know upon entry.
