Where to park (outdoor pool)
Do not park on the asphalt driveway in front of the pond at the footbridge entrance to camp. This is an emergency access way to the pond by order of the fire department. On weekdays, parking is only allowed in the lot by the main building. For weekend meets, you can park on the grass by the pond. Pickup (outdoor pool)
On weekdays we share the outdoor pool with campers. After crossing the foot bridge to camp, turn immediately to the RIGHT, walk up the grass hill to access the pool deck and locker room from the gate on the EAST end of the pool (nearest the pond). Please do not walk along the gravel walkway. Following this pattern will help camp counselors distinguish campers from swimmers. Since practice ends after all campers leave, you may exit the area from any of the deck exits. |
Thank YOU to all the volunteers who helped make our first outdoor home meet a success, especially the 14 families who volunteered and helped out even though they did not have children in the sessions they worked. We hope to see you at the Swim-a-Thon on July 7 and the next home invitational on July 11 & 12. |
