Any person who lost their pass since last season may visit the township office for a new one for a nominal fee. When you enter the pool please present all membership cards to the gatekeeper so they may run them under the scanner and verify membership. Upon exiting we ask all membes who may return that day to scan out. This is only necessary if you plan to return to the pool the same day and is not intended to offend anyone, rather it protects dues paying members. In the event an unauthorized person attempts to use another individual s card, management reserves the right to deny entrance, retain the card, and contact the authorized member.

5 SWIM LESSONS The Pool offers a wide range of swimming classes to assist your child in learning to swim. Whether your child is a toddler, beginner, intermediate, or advanced swimmer there are classes to fit their skill level. Information sheets indicating level abilities are available to assist in placing swimmers in classes that match their abilities. Students may be reassigned at the discretion of the instructor within that time slot. The Pool management will provide the free service of pre-placement testing for swim lessons. Parents may bring their child in for testing anytime the pool is open prior to the lesson registration date of Saturday, June 13, 2015 at 8:00 AM at the pool. Please see one of the Head Guards or Manager for more details. We encourage parents to take advantage of this screening. Classes and curriculum will be organized and arranged by the pool s management team and instructed by our highly trained lifeguard staff. Please review the swim lesson registration information which includes outlines of the class schedules. Separate registrations will be held for each session to insure that all interested patrons receive a lesson throughout the summer.

If a non-member is bringing your child to swim lessons, a $10.00 cash deposit will be collected at the gate, and returned if they exit the facility before the noon opening.
