You aware correct. What was in the Rec News in the DS was clear IF your neighborhood pool is NOT listed it is NOT open.
The 3 adult only pools that WERE listed I believe are on the property of a Rec Center like the family and sports pools. This would make sense since the rec employees are the monitors.
If Ma and Pa Kettle Show up at any pool they will be required to maintain 6ft at least while sitting in the chairs. It was CLEARLY written that MOVING of the furniture will NOT be allowed.
I pity the monitor, they not only have to check ur ID they have to write down what time u came in and were u are located, in CASE they have to REMIND u that it’s time for u to leave
I know I would want THAT job, NOT.

I don't really think that a public pool with a lot of people in it is going to be sanitary, sterile or safe! They would have to put so much chlorine in that pool that everyone's skin would either dry out or burn like heck from all the chlorine. As we all know people will pee in the pool and saliva will get in the pool and of course just about every other body function you can think of May leak into the pool also. Some people aren't well and that will go into the pool. This also causes problems. I just personally feel that I Would not go into the pool until everything is basically safe and secure and they have a cure or some kind of thing to stop this virus. 6 feet away won't help when everybody is sharing the same basic bathwater! Think about it. I prefer not to dive into a pool that is, what I feel, not totally safe yet.. but that is just my opinion . Everyone has a right to theirs and I'm not looking for an argument I'm just stating the way I feel , and the way I know others feel that I know personally. And also what I've heard from Friends who have spoken to me about the public pools.

Correction - That would be 12’ diameter tube or 6’ radius.

1. The Villages has no public pools.
2. They are limiting the number of people allowed in the water at any given moment, and they're ALSO limiting the duration of swimmers/pool-dunkers to 1 hour each.
3. There is no diving in ANY of the pools, so your preference not to dive into one is irrelevent.
4. People pee and cough and spit into the pools when there isn't a virus going around. If you're not okay with that, you probably shouldn't ever go into a pool that is ever occupied by anyone else, ever.
5. Welcome to the forum. Interesting you picked this thread for your first post.
