July 1st – What’s Happening At The Pool…

Hello swimmers,

Busy holiday week ahead of us. The weather looks nice and there are fun days ahead! But before we get to the holiday fun I have a few items I want to bring to your attention.

Double Down Diaper Policy
Accidents happen but let’s make sure we are doing all we can to keep them out of the pool. If your child is still in diapers please follow our double down diaper policy. These little swimmers must have on a diaper and a swim diaper with elastic leg and waist bands. We have signs posted in the lobby with examples. We also sell both diapers and reusable swim diapers if you forget them when you come down.

Reminder- Member Registration for Session 2
Member Registration for Session 2 of swim lessons will take place in person at WW pool on TUESDAY, July 2nd from 10-11am. If you are not able to come in person to register, you can call the pool to register: 206-523-8211. (The dates for Session 2 are July 8th-18th).

If your child is currently in lessons, they will receive a report card with a recommendation for the next level they should enroll in. The report cards will be available the morning of Tuesday, July 2nd, and you can pick them up in the lobby (they will be on the bulletin board in the lobby and are organized by teacher name).

Please contact our lesson coordinator with any questions- email wwlessoncoordinator@gmail.com or call (252) 228-4534

Wedgwood Water Polo!!
The best sport in the world will be back at Wedgwood in a few short days! Seasoned veterans and newcomers are welcome to come play. Coach Ruby and Mark will be ready to get you in for some action. Registration forms are posted in the lobby down at the pool. Take a look at the flyer below for more information about practice times and season ahead.

4th of July Floats and Root Beer Floats 1:00pm – 3:00pm
Come kick off your 4th of July festivities at the pool! From 1-3pm we will have Almost Anything Goes in the pool and will be serving root beer (and other sodas) floats on the top deck. Everyone had a blast at this celebration last year so we thought we would run it back again this year. ***There will be no lap swim from 1-3pm during the floats and floats celebration. But there will be an extra hour of EMLS 6-8AM and a bonus noon lap swim hour from 12-1PM***

Clancy The Pool Cat Remembrance
Wanted to take a moment to remember Wedgwood’s beloved four-legged feline friend, Clancy. Clancy passed away this week and will be deeply missed by the Wedgwood community, staff and his family. Clancy lived a full life as a near neighbor of the pool and was a constant presence around the grounds. You may remember seeing him stroll the decks and grass keeping all of us safe from our rodent residents or saw his ever helpful presence in the office with our lifeguards assisting them on their office tasks, or may have seen him out and about in the neighborhood. He was a friend to all who came to the pool and will be missed and remembered fondly. Keep Clancy in your thoughts as you come down to the pool. Here is to you Clancy!
