No equipment or toys will be permitted in the pool during leisure swim times and minimal equipment will be available during swim lessons and programs.

SAFETY AND SANITATION

Treated pool water is an effective disinfectant and the risk while in contact with treated pool water is considered minimal. Staff will be disinfecting common touch points every two to four hours. All staff have received training on updated lifesaving and first aid treatment to best protect both patrons and themselves in the event of an emergency. Goggles are highly recommended while participating in aquatic activities. Personal Flotation Devices (PFD’s) will be provided and will be sanitized between uses, as well as at the end of each day.

ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE AND SCREENING

There will be a designated entrance and exit directly to the pool deck as change room facilities will be closed to the public. A staff member will greet patrons at the gate to validate your reservation. The staff will ask each patron a set of screening questions. If the patron passes the screening questions, they will enter through the gate and be allowed access to the pool deck. If the patron does not meet what is required by the screening questions, they will not be permitted to the pool area.

PROGRAMMING

All aquatic activities will require pre-registration online at www.scugog.ca/registration. Lane swim, social swim and public swim will be operating on a reservation system. This is to align with bather load guidelines, promote physical distancing and reduce the use of cash payment. Registration for lane swim, social swim and public swim will open at 9:00 a.m. each week on Monday for the next week’s leisure swims. If the bather load permits, walk in patrons may be permitted once all online participants have arrived. Please note: all walk in patrons will need to pay with cash as the facility does not accept debit, credit or cheque.

SWIMMING LESSONS

All Instructors will teach from the pool deck and only be permitted in the water to demonstrate skills. To maintain the safety of participants, Red Cross Preschool Levels and Swim Kids Levels 1-3 will require a parent or guardian living within the same household in the water with them during their lesson. Swim Kids Levels 4+ will allow the child to be in the water by themselves as the instructor teaches on deck.

POOL RULES

Those with open sores or communicable diseases will not be admitted into the pool, unless a medical doctor’s certificate is presented. All participants using the lap and leisure pool must change from street clothes to a swim suit and/or clean clothing brought to the facility for the purpose of swimming.
