Pool Use
Never leave a child unattended around the pool area.
Avoid spitting, blowing your nose in the water.
Never pee in the water as it feeds the algae, always visit the bathroom BEFORE entering the pool.
ALWAYS take a full shower and thoroughly wash your feet before getting in, the skin and dirt also feeds the algae.
Also remember to take a shower also after you get out: chlorine is just not good for you.
Avoid bathing right after putting sunscreen, wait at least 30 minutes so it doesn’t all end up floating.
Avoid using chemical soap at the outdoor shower, it ends up in our lake.
Do not run around the pool area: the darker areas are very slippery when wet!
Do not leave bottles or glasses around the edges, prefer using plastic/steel ones.
Avoid entering the house with wet feet.
Never jump or push someone in the pool, it is shallower than it looks.
