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.
