CWSC Pool Rules
Rules are to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for all swimmers and members. Consequences can range from sitting out to being asked to leave the pool, even possible revocations of membership. We take these rules seriously to foster this safe and welcoming environment. We have also provided explanations as to why we have the rules we do.
- Unnecessary conversation with or annoying a lifeguard while on duty will not be permitted.
- Lifeguards need to focus on the swimmers and be ready at a moment’s notice for emergencies.
- Only one person at a time is allowed on the diving board.
- The boards were not made to hold the weight of two people.
- Multiple people on the board can lead to someone being knocked off onto the concrete or water.
- Caution shall be exercised in the use of diving boards. No inward or reverse dives.
- Only suntan preparations in plastic or tube containers are permitted in the pool area.
- Sunscreen can spill on the deck and create unclean environment.
- Alcoholic beverages are not allowed on the pool property.
- We do not have a liquor license
