I've noticed they're only opening 3 neighborhood pools---I wonder if it is a staffing issue?

not every pool will initially be open....sounds like it is happening in phases
The DS had a complete list in the Rec & Parks insert today

Most likely they will do head counts on entry.

Hardy-har-har! . We could have done without that visual!

But at least the “bathers” will be wearing masks and gloves.

Call the country club. My neighbor works at Cane Garden and I 'think' he said they will open.

Pools are for swimming, not standing.

Why would the rules be any different.....6 feet is 6 feet regardless the public (priority or others) pools.

Re: Country Club pools: those aren't Villages amenities and not part of any Rec centers. So you'd need to get in touch with the club you're interested in to find out when they're opening and what their rules are.

Re: family pools & kids: the notice says priority will be given to residents. So if Grandma has grandkids down visiting, and Sue Villager wants to go for a swim, then theoretically Grandma will need to either bring her grands somewhere else, or take a step back so Sue can get in first. Whether or not this will be enforced, or even enforceable, is another matter entirely.

If I get my 1 hour in one of those 4 swimming lanes, I will accept offers from anyone that would be interested in a trade for yeast, sanitizing wipes or for 2 rolls of individually wrapped 2 ply TP!

Done, I will take the hour of lap swimming and hand over the sanitizer and TP, but I don't have any yeast, so I will throw in another roll of TP.

Funny for sure! I seem to remember seeing a post somewhere before that you really miss your exercise by swimming laps so I'll just keep the swap simple, one long weekend back in the beautiful Berkshires for 2 of my hours in the lap pool!
