Franklin Knoll Swimming Pool Associations, Inc. (Franklin Knolls) routinely makes its facilities available to its members for such functions as birthday parties, group picnics, and similar functions. Our assumption is that the pool will remain open for other members to use during the function and the function will enjoy exclusive use of a limited part of the Club’s facilities. No glass containers are permitted. All parties must have completed the reservation registration and fee payment at least 24 hours before the event (In case of rain, fee will be refunded or event can be rescheduled).
1) Note that space is reserved on a first-come, first-served basis with the online Reservation system.
2) The party must have an adult sponsoring member and sufficient adults in attendance to have a ratio of one adult for every 8 children.
3) The sponsoring member will be responsible for making sure the area used is properly cleaned up.
4) The sponsoring member is responsible for paying any applicable guest fees for nonmembers attending the party.
5) When making your reservation, a fee of $100 will be collected to cover general use of the pool, its grounds, and facilities.
Party Hosts: Please share these pool rules with all invites:
- Walk on the Pool Deck.
- No Glass containers and bottles at the pool.
- Limit of 9 guests per family before a party fee is applied.
- Children not yet potty trained must wear a swim diaper and plastic pants to swim in any of the pools.
- Squirting water toys (such as water guns) are prohibited.
- Floating rafts are prohibited (with the exception of Dive In Movie Night).
Slide rules:
- You must be able to swim unassisted in deep water before going down the slide. If you are new to the pool, have the lifeguard test you before you go down the slide or swim in the deep end.
- You must wait on the pool deck (not the stairs) until the person in front of you has gone down the slide.
- Give the person ahead of you time to swim out of the way before going down the slide. Look to make sure no other swimmers are in the way before you slide.
Diving Board Rules
- You must be able to swim unassisted in deep water to jump off the diving board. If you are new to the pool, have the lifeguard test you before you swim in the deep end or go off the diving board.
- If you wait at the diving board to jump off, the lifeguard must clear the well (deep end) before you can jump off the board. You may not jump off the board until everyone is out of the well.
HAVE A GREAT POOL PARTY!
