Spectator Stands- Due to limited capacity, youth will need to be dropped off outside pool door #16 and picked up outside pool door #15. We encourage parents/guardians to remain in our vehicles with your youth until a staff member comes to tell swimmers they can come into the building. Swimmers that arrive early and exit their vehicle will need to stand on a white tiger paw located on the sidewalk and wait for a staff member. This will allow us to clear the pool area before allowing the next group of lessons into the building. 3. Pool Staff- Pool staff will remain on deck and wear a face mask while teaching. If at any time a rescue is necessary, the pool staff will immediately initiate and follow the existing EAP (Emergency Action Plan)4. Self-screening- Prior to coming to your lesson please ask the following:In the past 24 hours, have you or anyone in your immediate family had the following symptoms:o A fever (100.4 or higher) within the last 72 hourso A cough or sore throato Shortness of breatho Chillso Repeated shaking with chillso Muscle paino Headacheo New loss of taste or smello Had direct household contact with a person experiencing undiagnosed symptomso Diarrhea, vomiting or nausea in the last 24 hours If ‘yes’ to any of the above, the individual should be sent home/not attend the program.5.
