Please set aside a few minutes to familiarize yourself with our rules below

• No Running: We know kids have unlimited energy and want to race in the second they see the water. Walking is the best way to prevent slips, trips, and easily preventable injuries. Please remind your children to walk to, from, and around the pool and up the stairs at all times.
• No Diving In The Pool Head First:  We do not have any area deep enough to safely dive headfirst. You're always welcome to jump in feet first, in appropriate areas, as long as you do it away from the wall in between the green cones.

• The area between the green cones is the designated jumping zone: We ask that people stay out of that space for kids to jump freely/to avoid any injury

• No water toys or equipment allowed. 
• Life Jackets Are Allowed: When worn properly a life jacket is buttoned across the chest and tight enough to keep the child's head above water comfortably. Life jackets are not floatation toys and should not be used as such.
• No Horseplay or PDA: We want to keep Family REC swim a safe and appropriate space for everyone. Rough play in the pool puts younger or vulnerable children at risk. Please remember to be aware of your surroundings. Another way that we strive to maintain a family friendly facility is by limiting public displays of affection (PDA). Lifeguards will respectfully address concerns regarding excessive PDA in order to promote this family friendly environment.
• Have Fun At Family REC Swim! Mostly we want you to have fun; we want your kiddos to be safe and learn to love the water and how to be a good community citizen. Please never hesitate to ask a question of the aquatic lead on duty (gray shirt) if you have one. Thank you for keeping an eye on your kids and enjoying the community blessing of The Kroc Center!
