Knowing and following safety guidelines will help everyone enjoy their leisure hours safely.  Basic information of general pool safety are;


  • For adults and children – know your swimming limits and stay within them.  Don’t try to keep up with a stronger skilled swimmer.  Keep an eye on weaker swimmers if they appear tired encourage them to get out of the water and rest.   
  • Watch out for dangerous “toos”, too tired, too cold, too much sun, too much strenuous activity.  Get out of the water immediately for any of these situations occur. Stay off the main drain.  The suction from the pump could trap you underwater.   
  • Use common sense regarding food and beverages while swimming.  Do not chew gum or eat while you swim, you could easily choke.  Never drink alcohol and swim.   
  •  Use plastic instead of glassware in the pool area.  A general rule is enter feet first into water than head first.  Never dive into an above ground pool, they are too shallow.   
  • Always supervise children.   
  • Never use air-filled swimming aids as a substitute for approved life vest.  Never use flotation devices or inflatable toys to replace parental supervision. Children must be constantly reminded to walk slowly in the pool area and only enter the water with you. 
  • Don’t assume young children will use good judgment and caution around the water.  After you’ve done swimming, secure the pool so children can’t enter.
