Good to know

Parents, bags, and bathrooms

  • Parents can sit on the wall by the instructional pool, or head up to the bleachers in the mezzanine. Ask the front desk how to get up there.
  • Drop‑off and go is fine once your swimmer is with their coach.
  • Locker rooms are on the right just before the pool doors. Come dressed to swim if you can; it saves time.
  • Running late or can't find us? Text Coach Phil at (703) 424‑4551.
