LOBBY ANNOUNCEMENT
Hello and Welcome to Week 8 of our Fall Session!
My name is ____________ and I will be your deck supervisor.
Evaluation Week: Assessing Progress and Skill Development
This week, our instructors are dedicated to thoroughly assessing each student’s progress and reinforcing essential swimming skills. This evaluation period is crucial for identifying areas of strength and areas where additional focus may be beneficial, ensuring your child continues to develop their abilities effectively.
PARENT REMINDERS
Friday, October 31st, we will be closed for afternoon lessons. A make-up token has been added to your account if you typically swim that day and no further action is needed.
If you are running late, please wait at the door in the center of the of the lobby and the Deck Supervisor will greet you and escort your students to class. Also, at the end of class, please remember to wait at or near exit doors for your swimmers. As a safety precaution, we cannot allow students to wander independently into the locker room, if we do not see a parent/guardian with them. Just give us a friendly wave to confirm if you are not right up front.
On deck showers are available and can be used for a quick rinse after class (no soap, shampoo, etc. please). However if you are showering in the locker room, please be mindful of others in the facility and limit your time spent in the shower and please no reserving showers. Thanks for your cooperation!
ADDITIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR WINCHESTER ONLY We ask that all customers please park in the YELLOW lined spots only. They do extend all the way around the building onto the other side of the pool. The white lined spots are for our neighbors across the street.
