1. Proper Identification

Everyone using the pools must have an identification badge. No exceptions will be made. Daily passes are available for your guests, through the club manager. Members must accompany their guests at all times. Lifeguards or authorized persons may ask anyone within either of the pool gates for badge display. No one should be offended if they are asked to return to their residence for their badge. We must discourage unauthorized use of our pool. Everyone’s cooperation in wearing badges or having the badge displayed on a garment laying on the chair or chaise will help tremendously.

Members whose current assessments are in arrears will have pool privileges revoked.

If you need a replacement badge, please call the management office @ 980.207.8984 during office hours.

2. Safety and Health Provisions

Carolina Pool Management and Quail Hollow Management will strive to maintain a pleasant atmosphere for all, and good behavior rules will be strictly enforced:

	No smoking is permitted.
	Dangerous horseplay or group games will not be permitted.
	Alcohol is allowed at both pools, but not in glass containers, and it should be consumed responsibly. Intoxicated individuals will be asked to leave.
	Running inside the pool area is not allowed.
	No articles made of glass are permitted within the fenced-in area around the pool. A broken glass accident will cause immediate closing of the pool as required by the Mecklenburg County Health Department and the pool will be drained for removal of all glass particles.
	Pets are not allowed inside the pool gates.
	Food may be consumed on the pool deck. Please dispose of your trash in the proper receptacle. No food is allowed in the pools.
	Playing music will be allowed as long as it does not disturb others. Please be considerate of your neighbor and be prepared to use headphones if needed. Loud, blaring music of any kind will not be tolerated.

Life-guards and Quail Hollow management are responsible for enforcing all safety and health rules and will report any violations by minors to their parents. Disobeying the lifeguard could result in losing pool privileges.

3. Lifeguards

All lifeguards will be properly identified and will remain in the family pool area. For 10 minutes every hour, the lifeguard will require all children to leave the pool for an adult swim. The lifeguard may ask an adult to make sure no child enters the pool. During this time, the lifeguard will test the water in the adult pool and check and clean the restrooms. Lifeguards are responsible for carrying out directives of the Board and Property Management. A copy of these written instructions will be available at the pool. Members and guests should not ask the lifeguard to circumvent his or her responsibilities.

4. Restrooms

Restroom facilities are on the main level of the clubhouse, across from the entrance to the adult pool. Because of problems with water leaking into the lower level, we request that you do not use the showers in the restrooms. Please use the outside showers provided at both pools. Additional restroom facilities for the family pool are located in the basement of the clubhouse.

5. Familiarization with Pool Rules

Members are responsible for familiarizing all pool users in a household and their guests with these rules.

6. Compliance of Rules

It is necessary to maintain high health and safety standards for everyone to enjoy our pools. Many rules are established by our insurance carrier and the Mecklenburg County Health Department which we are bound to follow, or be closed. There are no special privileges for anyone or any group. Everyone’s full cooperation is requested.

7. Management, Maintenance and Supervision

Our pools and lifeguards are managed by Carolina Pool Management, who is responsible for cleaning the pools and maintaining the chemicals. They also hire and train the lifeguards who are instructed on the rules and regulations. These cannot be altered.

8. Property Damage

Damage to facilities as a result of neglect or vandalism will be repaired at the expense of the responsible person.

9. Personal Property

Quail Hollow Homeowners Association, Carolina Pool Management, the lifeguards and managers bear no responsibility for damage or loss of personal property.
