AQUATICS Aquatic Centre Age Requirements

Lap Swimming Etiquette 101

All children under the age of 7, and any child aged 7 – 11 who is unable to swim the length of the leisure pool (~20m), must be accompanied in the water by, and within arm’s reach of, a responsible individual 16 years or older. This includes accompaniment to the top of the waterslide. The maximum recommended ratio for supervisors to children is 1 to 3.

The nature of lap swimming is dynamic and can change throughout a workout. The following guidelines will assist in making an effective and enjoyable experience for all.

1. Select a lane containing swimmers moving as closely as possible to the pace that one realistically expects to swim throughout their entire workout.

2. Keep right except to pass – no lane splitting.

3. If you are constantly passing swimmers move up a lane or if you are constantly being passed, move down a lane.

4. Use common sense, communication and respect to share the space as best you can… no one has a right to “own” a lane.

When in doubt, talk to the people in your lane and, if all else fails, ask the lifeguard. It is not the role of a lifeguard to “police” the lanes, but they are happy to answer questions about common conventions and provide suggestions for possible solutions.

With a shared desire to improve community services and enhance the wellbeing of seniors, a diverse group of non-profit organizations and government partners came together to form Aging Well Penticton. The partners work together to broaden opportunities for seniors to be active, connected and engaged in community life. Our activities are as diverse as the people we support, and have included physical recreation, social outings, arts programs, intergenerational programs, volunteering, grief and loss counselling, supports for family caregivers, personalized outreach, home services, mental health supports and more.
