Due to the amount of distressed swimmers over the past 3 weekends at the AFC Slide Pool, we have created – in partnership with Swim Metro – Slide Pool rules that will be enforced starting this weekend, June 16th.
1. Lifeguards must be obeyed at all times.
2. For safety reasons, all children under the age of 13 must complete a swim test prior to swimming. All children will be evaluated and placed in our swim status categories represented by red, yellow and green. When checking into the pool swimmers under the age of 13 will be given their swim status band allowing lifeguards and staff to know each swimmers limitations.
RED: child cannot swim independently and cannot utilize diving boards.
YELLOW: child can swim independently and can utilize the low diving boards.
GREEN: child can swim independently and can utilize the low and high diving boards.
3. Children with a RED wrist band are not permitted on the slide.
4. Only one person at a time should be on the slide.
5. Feet first sliding only. Riders must be on their backs or bottoms only.
6. No stopping, standing, spinning around, or rolling onto one’s stomach while on the slide.
7. No personal flotation devices, pool noodles, or lifejackets are allowed on the slide.
8. No masks, goggles, or water shoes allowed on slide.
9. Exit splash pool immediately.
10. No diving anywhere.
11. All normal pool rules apply.
