• Lightning Policy

  LIGHTNING POLICY 

  Because of the unpredictable nature of lightning and its often disastrous consequences, the Oliver Community Pool will always adhere to the following safety guidelines as set out by the NATIONAL LIGHTNING SAFETY INSTITUTE. 

  1.  When thunder is heard 30 seconds or less after a flash of lightning is observed, the pool will be cleared. Staff strongly recommends that all patrons remain inside the pool building until the storm subsides. 

  2.  Pool activities shall remain suspended until 30 minutes after the last thunder is heard. There will be no exceptions. It should be noted that storms are erratic and even though it may appear “safe” to resume activity, it is not. 

  3.  Swim lessons are also subject to cancellation due to lightning. There will be no reimbursement or rescheduling of the classes that are canceled due to weather.
