Though cool weather has set in, we fondly
remember the exciting games played by those fifteen
"Clownfish" (ages 8-10) who attended a party for
them hosted by Mona Swanson and Margaret
Messier (thank you!). Events for this fun
afternoon included a jumping competition off the
diving board, an underwater handstand contest and,
an all-time favorite, scavenger hunt (the kids
scurried to the paddle hut, flag pole, bike rack, hard
courts, etc. to find their items). The parents were
truly grateful, as this had them running—a lot!
These fantastic kids fed their hearty appetites with
pizza and root beer floats.
The last pool event was the School of Fish
Party (ages 4-12) hosted by Gwen Bruns and
Alison Schechtman and assisted by our incredible
lifeguard staff (we thank you all!). Over thirty
terrific swimmers dove for rocks, ran relays and
pushed watermelons all over to keep cool on this
sticky day. These energetic kids were rewarded with
refreshing ice cream sundaes and prizes to boot.
So, despite a summer of tornadoes, an
earthquake and a hurricane, the pool staff prevailed
and provided us with another fantastic summer of
fun in the sun. We were proud to be part of such a
dedicated group and hope everyone enjoyed the
pool as much as we did.

Important Pool News
The pool pay phone has been removed.
There will no longer be a pay phone available
for use in our pool area. Given the decreased
usage by members each year and the
availability of cell phones, the expense was
no longer warranted.
A number of other changes are planned
for the pool area! Come watch the progress as
improvements are made. In addition to new
paint, modifications are being made to the
locker rooms to help improve the overall
experience and decrease our energy
consumption. The point of sale system
implemented last year for tennis
is now going to be in use at the
Snuggery. We hope you'll enjoy
the modifications as Jim and his
team are able to implement
them.
