COVID-19 Operational Changes Expand

As of 8/23/21 - Due to State, CDC, and accepted practices in the Aquatics Industry, the following are required to operate during this pandemic -

  • NO ONE is admitted without a face covering, and this will be strictly enforced.  Masks must be worn at ALL times unless in the water.
    • With the recent surge in the Delta Variant, ALL persons (vaccinated or not) must wear a mask in the facility.
  • Social distancing is encouraged at all times, whether in the water or out.  Persons who are not fully vaccinated must maintain social distance.
  • Anyone refusing to adhere to these restrictions will be warned, then ejected if compliance is not attained.
  • Anyone presenting with Covid-19 symptoms will be denied entry.  If shortly after visiting here, you test positive for Covid-19, or are exposed to another who has tested positive, please let us know so we implement appropriate contact tracing to prevent further infections.
  • Everyone should check in either at the front desk or with their coach/instructor for an accurate attendance record.
  • Showers are open. Please maintain social distancing while showering.
  • A limited number of day-use lockers are available during the pandemic.  Rental lockers are still available for use and rent.
  • Locker rooms are open.
  • Towel service is now open.  Please return your used towel to the towel service window and place it in the bin under the window.
  • Please stay out of employee areas, and maintain at least 6' separation when talking with the staff.
