Safety

For the past few years, in addition to the exterior fence (legal safety requirement), the Club had a fence to oblige people to pass via the pediluve. This was a requirement of the water quality inspectors, since the pool filtration system was performing at a 1960s level (having been built in the 1960s 😊) and struggled to filter grass and leaf fragments.

With our new filtration system, this fence is no longer required. Parents, please be aware that there is now only one safety fence. Once kids are in the pool area they can access the pool without having to pass via the pediluve. Please, therefore, keep your eye on your kids at all times. For all Club Members, please also refrain from opening the pool gate for unaccompanied children, since they risk not being under parental supervision.

Usage Guidelines

Please make sure to use the footbath before entering the swimming pool, and please be aware of the need to wear footwear and clothing over swimming costumes in the clubhouse and on the way to and from the pool area. (See here.)
For the next two weeks, until the end of June, we kindly ask you to help protect the new turf by avoiding walking heavily on it.
Deck chairs have been placed on the existing grass area—please do not move them until after this period.

Let’s have fun, while please staying safe.
