The chemicals are checked twice per day and the pool is swept several times a week. Please remember to review the pool and pavilion rules. There is no glass containers allowed in the pool area.

Please remember in the event of an emergency call to 911 to let them know if there will be a problem getting to you—the county/township has the equipment and in an emergency they will get to you.
