Pool Management has the final word for any activity occurring on pool grounds that may impede and/or interfere with the general safety and welfare of Members/Guests.

HEALTH REGULATIONS

  1. In the event of vomit, blood and/ or fecal contaminations, the pool will be closed in accordance with Health Department regulations.
