The following Rules and Regulations have been instituted by The Village Farms Board of Directors:

  1. In order to use the pool:
    • You must live in The Village Farms, AND
    • You must be current with your Homeowner’s Association dues.
  2. Each resident of The Village Farms will receive 16 guest passes which are located on the top of your resident pool card.
  3. After the 16 visits have been used, the guest pass becomes invalid and the Guest Fee of $2.00 per swimmer per visit will be imposed and collected by the lifeguard on duty at the pool gate.
  4. All residents must be signed in at the time of entering the pool. There is a limit of Four (4) guests per household per visit to the pool. Under special conditions, the Pool Chairman may authorize additional guests.
  5. Refer to https://www.thevillagefarms.com/pool/ for pool hours.
  6. The pool will be closed for 1 hour after lightning and 30 minutes for thunder. If it is forecasted to continue throughout the day the head lifeguard will close for the remainder of the day. The health department requires that the guards will clear the facility of patrons for a lightning closure.
  7. These hours may be changed at the discretion of the pool manager due to weather conditions.
  8. All children and adults are required to sign in when arriving at the pool. These signatures will be cross-referenced to the PAID membership card file at the pool. Those without a PAID card on file will be denied admittance to the pool until the membership dues have been paid up to and including the current year. This will be strictly enforced.
  9. Restrooms and showers are available, but no locker facilities are provided.
  10. The lifeguards are responsible for adherence to pool rules and, above all, the SAFETY of all of those in the pool area. The lifeguards have the responsibility, and the authority, to temporarily suspend the privilege of use of the pool and pool area to anyone, who in their judgment, is jeopardizing the SAFETY of themselves or others or refuses to adhere to the pool rules.
  11. Showers must be taken before entering the pool in accordance with State Law.
  12. NO glass containers, sharp objects, or pets are allowed in the pool area.
