Howdy folks!
For the last month, we've had some guests at RCCP swimming with us-- The Marinette Girls' Swim Team has been practicing here while the Marinette school pool is being repaired. As their season is ramping up, you may see them more often, particularly during our evening open swim hours. To help ease lane congestion, we will be putting in another lap swimming lane during the evening hours on nights that they are practicing.
However, we would also like to take an opportunity to give everyone a refresher on lap swimming procedures and good lap swim manners:
🏊 Lane Usage 🏊
- Lanes can be used for lap swimming and water walking (only if lane is open and no lap swimmers need to utilize it).
- Please refrain from playing in lanes if lap swimmers are present and need to utilize them.
🏊 Lane Sharing 🏊
- Split Lane: Split lane swimming allows two people to share a lane, in which each person swims in one half of the lane.
- Circle Swimming: When three or more people need to utilize a lane, swimmers keep right while traveling in the lane, stagger starts and stops, and move out of the way of other swimmers while they are resting.
🏊 Lap Swim Manners 🏊
- Please be mindful of your stroke and kick while lane sharing so as to not disrupt others in the lane.
- Please cooperate and be respectful if a lifeguard asks you to move/share lanes as needed.
Thanks to everyone for being patient and accommodating, and continuing to be what makes this pool and community amazing! :)
