Question:
Will my child be allowed in the deep end?
Answer:
Children will be asked to take a swim test if they want to go
into the deep end. If they pass the test, the lifeguards will
record the child’s name and they will be allowed in the deep
end, which has two waterslides!
Question:
Do I have to go in the water with my child?
Answer:
If your child passes the swim test, you do not have to go into
the water with your child. You can watch from the bleachers on
the pool deck.
Question:
Can my swim team or club rent lanes for private use?
Answer:
Answer: Yes! Contact Joyce Seamens at 301-565-0190 or e-mail
JoyceS@acsgw.org
Question:
How old do you have to be to swim without an adult at the
pool?
Answer:
High school students can swim without an adult if they present
a school ID.
Question:
Are there locker rooms?
Answer:
Yes! There are hot showers, bathrooms, hair dryers, and small
and large lockers (bring your own combination lock) in the
men’s and women’s locker rooms.
Question:
Are kickboards and noodles allowed in the pool?
Answer:
Yes! Swimming aids are allowed, as long as the pool is not too
crowded. The lifeguards reserve the right to clear the pool of
noodles, etc, if the pool gets too crowded.
Question:
How shallow is the shallow end?
Answer:
The shallow end is over three feet, so very small children
will need an adult in the pool with them.
Question:
Can my child have a party at the pool?
Answer:
Yes, we encourage the use of the pool for celebrations, such
as birthday parties. Since no food or drinks are allowed in
the pool area, we recommend you schedule a room at the Takoma
Park Community Center for the refreshment portion of your
party. You can have your party at the pool during any of our
drop-in swimming hours. Contact Joyce Seamens at 301-565-0190
or e-mail
JoyceS@acsgw.org to learn more about having a pool
party.
