Admission Guidelines

Pool Admission Information

We have new safety measures in addition to our existing admissions standards

Each parent/guardian may bring a maximum of 4 children between the ages of 6 and 9 or a maximum of 2 children under 6 years of age.
Participants between the ages of 10-15 years must be accompanied by a parent/guardian who is a minimum of 16 years of age. The parent/guardian for those ages 10-15 years must remain in the pool enclosure to supervise, be available for any first aid incidents, and to ensure the physical distancing of 2 metres/6 feet is maintained throughout the swim (with the exception of those who are within your group). There is no maximum number of children per guardian for this age group.
Changes to our admissions guidelines are due to adaptations to first aid response, which encourage self-treatment or treatment from a family member/guardian for minor emergencies. These changes are meant to decrease contact between staff and the public and to promote physical distancing.
Participants between the ages of 10-15 years must be accompanied by a parent/guardian who is a minimum of 16 years of age. The parent/guardian for those ages 10-15 years must remain in the pool enclosure (meaning on the pool deck, and as a paying participant as your presence counts toward COVID participant restrictions) to supervise, be available for any first aid incidents, and to ensure the physical distancing of 2 metres/6 feet is maintained throughout the swim (with the exception of those who are within your group). There is no maximum number of children per guardian for this age group.
