Sorry if this has already been posted. [/quote]

thanks- that had not been posted.  And it's outrageous.   [/quote]

How so?[/quote]

it appears to favor commercial swim enterprises over non-profit outdoor community pools.

So 'classes' are acceptable in the water.  'facilitated fun' is acceptable.  'swim instruction' is acceptable.  But letting a family reserve a section of a pool, and just swim is verboten.

You’re reading into the way you want. NO grouping is allowed at all except on the deck by members of the same household. Everything in the water has to be 10’ front another swimmer/person/instructor. [/quote]

I know I’m probably preaching to the choir, but I can’t understand why a family can be together on deck and not in the water. That has yet to be explained to me. [/quote]

Because the kind of family on deck is the kind that can be independent in the pool, under these rules. There is no kiddie pool or holding kids and walking around with them. As a result, you’d not have little ones at the pool at all. You’d have older kids, who could follow the in-the-pool rules, on deck with their families.  [/quote]

Sorry, I'm still not clear. So a parent with a one year old can't work with that child in the water, but could conceivably hold the child in the lap on deck?[/quote]

Is it conceivable that a parent could hold his/her young child in their lap on deck, but not be allowed to do the same within a pool?

If a family can reserve an indoor table at a restaurant, and sit together on a pool deck, why can't that same family reserve a baby pool for themselves and utilize it? Are pools allowed to have member family units reserve marked out areas of the pool for their family's use only? If not, why? How is that riskier than an indoor restaurant or even the beach?

The state's regulations allow for Indoor and outdoor recreational sports may occur if ten feet of physical distance can be maintained by all instructors, participants, and spectators, with the exception of incidental contact [b]or contact between members of the same household.[/b] Why then are family units prohibited from contact within a swimming pool?[/quote]
