About pool capacity and monthly passes
We are required to maintain a specific ratio of lifeguards to pool users. Half of our capacity is reserved for those who register, while the remaining spots are first-come, first-served. If the pool reaches capacity, we cannot allow additional entries. Monthly pass holders can skip the line and do not need to register in advance.
