ICE MELT and HOT TUB

The snow is beautiful! Just a reminder that there is ice melt at the front door of the clubhouse. Bring a scoop and bag to take what you need for your porches.

Please drive safely and slower in the snow and ice. Remember stopping time is longer. Lets be courteous and kind and have a wonderful fun winter.

The hot tub is still open as well. Please replace the cover each time you use it to conserve the heat. Please be safe and use common sense according to the weather.

HAVE FUN!!!

PLEASE READ THIS FULL ARTICLE ON DROWNING.

I see so many parents at the pool not watching their children.  

1. “Except in rare circumstances, drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help. The respiratory system was designed for breathing. Speech is the secondary or overlaid function. Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs.
2. Drowning people’s mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water. The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale, inhale, and call out for help. When the drowning people’s mouths are above the surface, they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water.
3. Drowning people cannot wave for help. Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the water’s surface. Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe.
4. Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response, drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements. Physiologically, drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help, moving toward a rescuer, or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment.
5. From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response people’s bodies remain upright in the water, with no evidence of a supporting kick. Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard, these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs.”

POOL TO OPEN MAY 15th

The city will be out this week to inspect the pool. We are tentatively set to open on Wed, May 15th. Please reread all the pool rules. There are copies in the clubhouse wall outside the upstairs restrooms. Please reread and follow. Remember to clean up after yourselves and to take all of your belongings with you. Always leave it better than it was found. Enjoy the summer and have fun. 

Pool Closed Hot Tub OPEN

The pool is officially closed till next year. Please stay OFF the blue cover. This is very expensive and dangerous.
The hot tub will remain open for the winter. This is a lot of fun and very relaxing. You are welcome to remove cover to use the hot tub and then please cover it again when you are through. This will keep the heat in the water and cut the heating costs.
Please use caution when entering the pool area when there is snow and ice present.
I hope you enjoy yourselves.

Water Safety

I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather and the pool facilities. I wanted to remind everyone to please help watch out for children at the pool. I have been reading articles on drownings and most children drown right in front of adults. The signs are not what people think. The children rarely make a sound and are usually vertical trying to get their nose to the surface. Their throat is seizuring  and they struggle to get a sound out. It looks like they are playing.
I have heard of a few people at the pool telling their kids to leave them alone while they are sun bathing or swimming. Drowning takes seconds.
Please play safely and watch the children.

The Pool is OPEN!

The pool is open. The cover will remain closed until you want to use it. Please close it after you are finished if it is a cool day. Once it is consistently warm we will open it earlier and leave it open.

The doors to the clubhouse open at 6am everyday. The pool area automatically locks at 11pm. Please remember that you will be locked in the pool area until someone with a manager key can let you out. You should leave the area by 10:55 to be sure you are able to leave.

Please remember to use swim diapers on your un potty trained children. No food or drinks in the pool. No glass containers in the pool area. No animals inside the pool area ($50 fine). NO soap in the pools. No alcohol.  Please follow the rules in your HOA manual. If you don't have any there are some posted on the inside of the clubhouse wall near the woman's bathroom.

Please remember to clean up after the use of any of the clubhouse facilities. People can use the clubhouse at anytime when it is not reserved. Let continue to be considerate of others. It is always nice to leave things better than found.

Lets have a safe, clean and respectful summer! HAVE FUN!!

Remember that the theater room does not automatically get reserved with the great room. The great room is the only room that can be reserved. You must go over early the morning of your reservation and sign up for the theater room. The hot tub is also open to all tenants.

I hope this clears any confusion regarding the reserving of the clubhouse. Enjoy!

Thanks
