New Guidelines for Swimmer Safety

• Participants should come READY to swim in their bathing suits; there is NO changing in our facility. Participants will have to leave in your suit.
• No physical contact between student and instructor (in/out of water).
• Students who are learning to swim and or need physical assistance/support:
  • Require a parent to be IN the water to provide physical support and guidance as needed. The instructor will give direction from the deck or water.
• Masks need to be worn when not in pool.
