Bathrooms and showers are open. Only swim diapers are permitted in the pool.

All swimmers 16 and under must be swim tested and banded. Two tests are available – a shallow water test and a deep water test. Anyone who cannot pass either swim test will be required to wear a flotation device. Those who do not wish to take the swim test can enter the pool with a floatation device.
Children 6 and under must be accompanied in the water by an adult even after successful completion of the shallow or deep water test.
Please see an off-duty lifeguard if your child wants to take the swim test.

These can include lifejackets and puddle jumpers. Nothing inflatable will be permitted for use as a flotation device.
A very limited number of flotation devices will be available. Flotation devices are not a substitute for adequate supervision.
