Guidelines for In Water Chaperones

For the safety of all involved please make sure to adhere to these guidelines upon coming to swim. All swimmers must take a shallow and deep-water test on their first day of participation. Floatation devices cannot be worn during swim tests.

• Children, 12 and older, who pass both tests, are permitted to swim without an adult guardian needed in the water or facility.
• Children, 12 and older, who DO NOT pass both tests MUST be accompanied by an adult guardian in the pool area and possible in the water.
• Children, 11 and younger, who pass both tests must be accompanied by an adult guardian in the pool area and facility.
  • Children, 11 and younger, who only pass the shallow water test MUST have an adult guardian on the pool deck during child’s time in the water.
  • Children, 11 and younger, who DO NOT pass a test, MUST be accompanied by an adult guardian in the water at all times.

Please note: If they must wear a floatation device then you must be in with them regardless of age. Guardians that must be In The Water must pay the Family fee.

The above are all in accordance with the BRY Pool Rules.
