| POOL
We have two beautiful pools, one is very large, Olympic style and heated and the other is a kids wading pool for the tots. The main pool has two diving boards and one slide. The pool is also equipped with starting blocks. We offer chairs to relax beside the pool as well as a grassy area to sit or play in. We offer lessons in swimming, snorkeling, and diving as well as a swim team and Aqua fit.

Once again our club will be offering the Sarnia Riding Club Sting Ray swim team. This runs every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Senior swim team runs from 8:00 – 9:00 am and junior swim team runs from 9:00 – 9:45 am. We are happy to have Dan Costain returning as the Head Coach with Wendy Margetts as our Assistant Coach. We will be sending in our clothing and bathing suit order form in during the second week to ensure everyone receives their items in time to wear them to meets. To all new members we would love new additions to our team. The first week will be a FREE test run for those who are uncertain if they would like to join. Hope to see you all out Monday July 2nd.

Maintenance
We have started a 2 year plan to enhance our pool facility. This year we have replaced two our skimmer baskets in the main pool. We have also painted the wading pool, main pool lip, diving board, and bathroom doors. Next year more extensive work will be done to the top three feet of the main pool to prevent further deterioration of the tiles and cement. This will also allow examination of the pool underground plumbing to ensure its integrity.
