Learn to Swim2018

Arrival �me:  Swimmers should be present in the designated mee�ng area and ready to swim ve minutes prior to their class �me.  Remind your swimmers to use the restroom before class. 

Class Check‐in‐Procedure:  Upon entry into the building for each lesson, you and your swimmer(s) will check‐in at the Front Desk.  ALL MEMBERS must scan their card(s) and will receive a wristband.  On the rst day of class please stop at the swim lesson check‐in table.  Enrollment in the class permits admi�ance into the locker rooms, family changing rooms and aqua�c facili‐ty during the swimmer(s) scheduled class �me, but does not permit open use of the pool(s), eld house, weight room or tness rooms.  Ask a Front Desk A�endant about Punch Passes

available for purchase for a�er class swimming for Learn to Swim Sessions 1,2, 6 & 7. 

Swim Diapers:  “Official” Swim Diapers are required for children who are not toilet trained.  Swimmers requiring a swim diaper must also wear a swim suit that fully covers the swim diaper.  Furthermore, diaper changing is not permi�ed anywhere on the pool deck or in the mee�ng rooms.  Diaper changing must take place in the Family Changing Rooms or Locker Rooms; this is an Ohio State Code.

Locker Rooms:  Please dress swimmer(s) in the locker room, not in the pool area.  Out of re‐spect for all the members and guests, all children requiring the assistance of a parent or adult of the opposite gender should use the Family Changing Rooms located off the Lobby area. 

Proper Swimming A�re:  If your swimmer has longer hair we highly recommend he or she wear a swim cap or their hair �ed back.  All swimmers must wear a proper swimming or bathing suit.  Proper swim suits are o�en made from lycra, nylon or pol‐yester.  They are designed to be quick‐drying and do not dras�cally enlarge upon contact with moisture.  Swimmers are not permi�ed to wear T‐shirts without Facility Management approv‐

al. 

Goggles and Flota�on Devices:  One of the goals of lower level classes is to teach children how to be safe in water.  Allowing children to wear goggles or use ota�on devices undermines their ability to perform survival skills.  Sub‐mersion of their face/eyes is a cri�cal skill in developing proper breathing tech‐

niques as well as simply gaining maximum comfort in the water.  By allowing children to wear goggles or use ota�on devices at an early level they become dependent, which can later in‐hibit their swimming abili�es.  For these reasons, swimmers are strongly discouraged from wearing goggles prior to Level 3 and may not use ota�on devices. 

A Few Swim Lesson Reminders 

Wai ng Area:  Parents of swimmers under 12 years must remain in the building at all �mes.  Once checking in at the Front Desk has been completed, you may walk your swimmer(s) to the Back Mee�ng Room adjacent the Back Pool, where lessons take place.  There, the instructor will meet each class and take a�endance before each lesson.  Non‐member parents and caregivers must re‐main in the Back Mee�ng Room for the dura�on of lessons.  Parents and caregivers are permi�ed to be present on the Back Pool Deck to observe their swimmer’s progress on the rst (1st) and last(6th) day of lessons only.  The Splash Pad will remain closed during lessons in order to keep distrac‐�ons to a minimum for op�mal learning. 

Addi onal Prac ce Time:  If swimmers would like to come earlier or stay later than their designated class �me, Daily Admission Passes and memberships are available at the Front Desk and can be purchased at any �me.  Swimmers must have a wristband. 

Absence:  All classes have specic student:teacher ra�os that ensure quality instruc�on and a safe learning environment for your swimmer.  Due to safety concerns, make‐up classes are not availa‐ble during another class’s scheduled �me.  Addi�onally, Splash Zone does not offer private make‐up lessons. 

Rain/Safety Days:  In the event of inclement weather, alterna�ve measures will be taken so as to avoid class cancella�on.  Should an en�re class be cancelled due to inclement weather, a make‐up class will be scheduled.  Should an en�re session be cancelled due to inclement weather, refunds will be issues.  If you are uncertain if classes will be held because of poten�ally bad weather please call The Splash Zone 440‐774‐5059. 

Refunds:  Refunds will only be issued up to 5 days prior to the start of the rst day.  All refund re‐quests less than 5 days prior to the rst day require a valid medical excuse and Facility Manage‐ment approval.  Refund requests are addressed on a case by case basis.   

Health and Hygiene:  The chlorine and pH levels in the Splash Zone are constantly checked by au‐tomated chemical controllers and manually by aqua�c staff.  The Splash Zone fol‐lows all guidelines established by the Lorain County Health Department, the Ohio Department of Health, and the Centers for Disease Control and Preven�on.  How‐ever, please remind your swimmer(s) to use the restroom before entering the wa‐ter and to wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.  Do not allow your swim‐mer(s) to enter the water if he or she is suffering from an illness that causes diar‐rhea, or has had diarrhea in the last week.  Do not allow your swimmer(s) to enter the water if he or she carries an open wound, lesions or contagious rash. 

Lastly, we’d like your swimmer(s) to have a safe and wonderful experience!!
