I want to bring friends to the pool – how does that work?
Each household has 25 guest passes a year. Additional guest passes may be purchased for $2.00 each. These passes will be tracked through the computer check in system and billed to you at the end of each season. You are permitted to bring up to 6 guests to the pool without prearranging through the pool manager. If you plan on having more than 6 guests please contact the pool manager at least one week in advance of your gathering to ensure adequate staffing. If additional guards are required, the cost will be charged to you at a rate of $25/guard/hour. Guests must be accompanied by a member at all times. Please make sure your guests understand and abide by all pool rules. Please remember that you are ultimately responsible for your family’s guests.
