Infringement of health and safety regulations is cause for suspension of pool privileges. The Swimming Pool Committee has the right to suspend the pool privileges of any adult or child who does not comply with the Rules and Regulations or with the instruction of the Aquatics Director.
GENERAL POOL ETIQUETTE
We ask that you help keep IGC clean and tidy. Our staff works diligently to keep our property and pool area clean. Food vessels and napkins tend to blow around the pool, thus please help us by throwing away your garbage when finished. In addition, we have conveniently placed towel barrels around the pool to put your used towels in. Finally, as a reminder, adults should always supervise their children at the pool and throughout the entire club. This is essential for their safety as well as other members enjoyment of the club. Inverness recognizes its special function as a family club and therefore, asks everyones careful attention to rules governing children.
