2012 Presidents Welcome Letter
May 13th, 2012 | Posted in News
Dear Mt. Lookout Swim Club Members,
Welcome to the 2012 season at Mt. Lookout Swim Club.
We are looking forward to another greatsummer.
Your pool opens on Saturday, May 26′”.
SIGN UP SHEETS FOR ACTIVITIES ARE NOW ON THE INTERNET
In order to cut down on our copying costs, postage, and general clutter, this year much of the information
that you once received as part of this package is now on line. The website can be found at
www.mtlookoutswimclub.corn or by searching for “Mt. Lookout Swim Club.” Space is limited for some
activities so I encourage you to sign up for your favorite activity as soon as possible.
MEMBERSHIP BOOKS
You will receive your 2012 Membership Book containing the pool rules and membership directory at the
front desk when you first sign in this year. We saved thousands of dollars last year in postage by cutting
down on mailings. The Board of Directors strives to run the Club in a cost effective manner.
NEW TENNIS COURT SURFACE — We are pleased to announce a major improvement in our three
tennis courts. The courts will be resurfaces with Premier Court. Premier Court is a manufactured
composite with an acrylic coating that offers a slightly cushioned surface. Premier Courts have been used
in the Davis Cup and represent a significant upgrade to our tennis program. The installation of the new
surface may cause some slight disruption in play this summer. In the final seaming process to connect the
composite rolls, the temperature must reach at least 85 degrees on the courts for three to four consecutive
days. We hope the installation can be completed before we open, but there is no telling with the weather.
We believe when you see the final product that you will think it was all worth any inconvenience.
MANAGEMENT
We are pleased that SwimSafe Pool Management is back to manage the operations of the pool again this
summer. Cary Belyea, owner of SwimSafe, is very experienced in the field of pool management and
offers a hands on approach to working with the pools he manages. SwimSafe will still provide all aspects
of club management. SwimSafe Pool Management is providing competent and qualified employees to
serve the pool as well as managing the snack bar and pool operations.
MEMBERSHIP
All dues should be paid at this point. Anyone who has not paid their dues and late fees by opening day
will not be admitted to the pool.
The entrance will have an attendant positioned at the outdoor desk to insure that members and guests sign
in. As with last year, SwimSafe has hired an adult to manage the front desk. The front desk employee’s
responsibilities include looking at EVERYONE’S membership card and signing in all guests. All
members are required to show their card for admittance – there are no exceptions. Last year’s efforts to
crack down on uninvited guests at our pool and people who are trespassing on pool property met with
some success as revenue from guest fees was up significantly.
If you are a new member or have ordered new cards, the cards will be available at the front desk at the
beginning of the season. If you have lost your cards, you can order replacements at the front desk or by
calling the membership line 533-1307. Membership cards are $5.00.
GUESTS
Please make sure that you sign in your guests as the club belongs to the members and you only cheat
yourself wllen allowing frieiids to use ihe pool without being a nienlbcr oi signi g hem in as a gues .
Thank you for your respect of the rules. It is the members’esponsibility to sign in all guests. As a
reminder four or more guests at one time, per family, per day must be approved by the club manager. No
person may be a guest of the club more than twice in any one calendar month,
regardless of how many members may extend an invitation. Please help us to
enforce this rule.
Families that are on the waiting list are entitled to be guests of the club only twice in the month of
August on a Monday. Tuesday, Thursdav or Fridav. onlv.
If you know of waiting list or member guest abuse or any other problems that you would like to report,
please feel free to let a manager or a Board member know, or if you prefer you may leave a message on
the membership line. We will also have a suggestion box at the front desk for your feedback-good and
bad, which the Board will review.
RULES
Please take some time before the pool opens to review the rules in the membership book. The rules have
been revamped and updated to reflect all current health and safety regulations warranted by the Board of
Health and The Red Cross. It is your responsibility as a member to follow the rules for your safety as
well as others. Two rules that need to be reiterated are: I) Children in diapers MUST wear rubber
pants and a bathing suit in the pool. There will be rubber pants available at the front desk for
purchase. 2) Children under the age of 3 must be accompanied by an adult at all times while in the
pool.
GENERALMATTERS
POOL HOURS – The pool will be open generally Sunday – Friday 1 1am – 9pm and Saturday 10am-
9pm. We will also be keeping the pool open a little longer after Labor Day, weather permitting. We will
keep you posted as to what the extended schedule will be. Members must leave the club at closing
time. In the last few years, members and/or guests have made a habit of not leaving on time, this
practice cannot continue. Anyone staying later than 9pm, will risk the loss of pool privileges.
WEBSITE – The website will be updated with all of the current events and notices as well as sign up
forms. Please feel free to check out our web site: www.mtlookoutswimclub.corn for calendars, tennis
sign up forms and other information. Join a Clicshare group to get email updates on club activities. This
is a great way to stay up on what is happening at the club.
FACEBOOK – We are on Facebook, look us up and become a fan. Information concerning the Club is
posted on our Facebook page throughout the year.
TENNIS – We want to once again welcome David Leyland as our Club pro for the 2012 season. He has a
lot of new things planned for the season. Please make sure you take a look at his agenda for this year as
some things have changed. Tennis information is posted on our website.
Sincerely,
Christopher R. McDowell,
President, Board of Trustees of the Mt. Lookout Swim Club
