Dive into the 2009 Season!
The swimming season is in full swing. The competitive teams (swimming and diving) have started practices. Adult fitness activities (water aerobics and boot camp) will start in June. If these activities seem a bit too much, just come on down to relax by the poolside. The Adult Sunday Brunch from 9:30am - 12:00pm is very popular and a nice way to relax and visit with your friends.
The Board of Directors is planning to rollout WiFi access at the pool. More information will be forthcoming after the system is operational.
Please do your part to keep the pool area neat and clean. Set an example by offering to help pick up or call things to the attention of the staff. Feel free to submit any suggestions to operations. Let's do our part to make the most of our beautiful setting in the woods.
