SWIMMING POOL ADMISSION
AND PRIVILIGES
-
All residents of Radburn over five years of age must present a valid photo
identification card issued by The Radburn Association for admission to
the swimming pool. Children under five years of age do not require ID cards.
-
Children under eight years of age will be admitted ONLY WHEN ACCOMPANIED
BY AND UNDER THE CARE OF AN ADULT OR APPROVED BABYSITTER. The person
in charge of the child is to remain with and be solely responsible for
the child.
-
Children between eight and thirteen years of age will be given a swimming
ability test in which they must be able to demonstrate that they can swim
the length of "B" Pool (25 meters) competently, using the Freestyle or
Crawl stroke. The child must be able to exhibit appropriate breathing technique
and may not stop to rest along the way.
Children who do NOT pass the swimming ability test will not
be admitted to the pool unless they are accompanied by and under the care
of an adult or approved babysitter, who is to remain with and be solely
responsible for the child.
-
Identification cards must be picked up from the Gate Attendant upon departure
from the pool, and may not be left at the pool.
-
No person is permitted within the pool area except during public swim hours,
unless the person is participating in a Radburn sponsored activity. Violation
of this rule will subject the person to suspension of swimming privileges.
Climbing over the fence, or entering the pool areas at any time when the
gates are locked constitutes a TRESPASS, and will subject trespassers
to disorderly persons charges.
-
During "Quiet Hours", no children under eighteen years of age are permitted
within the pool enclosure, except those graduating from high school in
June who have been issued the Adult Identification Card.
NOTE: REPLACEMENT FEE FOR LOST PHOTO IDENTIFICATION CARDS IS $2.00.

Guests will be admitted to the pools only when accompanied by a Radburn
resident who is required to remain with and be responsible for the guest.
The guest fees are $5.00 per person for guests ages 13 and above, and $3.00
per child for guests between the ages of 3 and 12. There is no charge for
children under the age of three. The guest fee is payable to the Gate Attendant.
Adult non-resident children who are staying with their parents for
an extended visit and bona fide houseguests of Radburn residents shall
be eligible for passes for specific time periods:
-
For the first two weeks as a guest, a pass shall be issued which defines
the dates of the period, and permits the guest to be admitted to the pool
without the resident upon payment of the appropriate guest fee to the gate
attendant.
-
From the 15th through the 30th day, a separate pass shall be issued with
the same attendance privilege, but upon payment of a fee which represents
2/3 of the regular guest fee, rounded to the nearest dollar.

From the 31st day, a separate pass shall be issued with the same attendance
privilege, but payment shall represent 40% of the regular guest fee rounded
to the nearest dollar.
-
No child under the age of thirteen may bring a guest to the pool unaccompanied
by an adult who is to remain with the guest, unless the guest is an adult
who is in charge of the child.
-
Residents between the ages of thirteen and eighteen may bring no more
than two guests at one time. The guests must be thirteen years of age or
older, and must pass the deep water test.
-
If the pool bather capacity is reached, no further guests will be admitted.

Application must be made to the Board of Trustees for circumstances which
are not met by the daily guest pass or the houseguest pass.

Adult babysitters who are not Radburn residents are admitted to the pool
with the resident children in their care without fee if attired in Street
