Safety First at the Pool: Lightning Detection System!
We’re excited to share a new safety enhancement at Club Inspiration!
A cutting-edge lightning detection system has been installed to help protect residents and guests during pool season. This system detects lightning within a 10-mile radius and provides real-time alerts.
Here's how it works:
- Lightning Detected: When lightning is detected, an alarm will sound, and all pool-goers will be required to exit the pool area and seek shelter inside Club Inspiration.
- 30-Minute All Clear: If no additional lightning is detected for 30 minutes, an all-clear announcement will be made, and guests may return to the pool deck.
Even more convenient!
We’ve added a real-time lightning status widget to our website. Now you can check the pool’s lightning status anytime from your smartphone—no need to call or wait for updates!
At Club Inspiration and Hope Harbor, your safety is our top priority. We’re proud to implement this proactive system to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
Safety Break
At Inspiration, we implement Safety Breaks during the last 10 minutes of every hour* at all our pools. During this time, only swimmers under the age of 18 are required to exit the water.
Why do we do this? Here are a few key reasons:
- Energy Break for Kids: Young swimmers need time to rest and recharge. We encourage parents to offer snacks, hydration, and downtime during safety breaks to reduce the risk of exhaustion and potential water-related accidents.
- Lifeguard Rotation: During each break, lifeguards switch to different stands to stay alert and better monitor all areas of the pool. While they are moving between stands, the pool is not actively monitored, making it unsafe for children to remain in the water.
- Restroom Use: Safety breaks are a great time for kids to take a bathroom break, helping prevent accidents and reduce the risk of a “code brown” (fecal contamination) in the pool.
- Water Quality Maintenance: These breaks give the water a chance to rest during peak use and allow staff to test and maintain chlorine and pH levels, ensuring clean, safe water for everyone.
Safety breaks are a simple but powerful way we prioritize wellness, safety, and water quality at Inspiration.
*During the final hour, all residents are required to exit the water for the scheduled safety break.
