Pool lane line safety announcement
When moving lane lines we need to make sure we are doing this in the safest way possible. A few times oteam has been seen moving the lane lines while there is still an active swimmer using the lane. This is a safety concern as it could hurt the swimmer if they are not aware the lane line has moved and may not see it. We understand that with some swimmers it's hard to get their attention. We are working on a solution for oteam where it will hopefully help lap swimmers see and acknowledge that lanes are changing and they need to get out.
Try your best for now to get their attention and please be patient as member satisfaction is the priority.
Oteam should NEVER move a lane line over while there is an active swimmer occupying that lane.
Lanes should not be moved more than 5 mins before lane line changes need to be made (we understand this may affect the timeliness of moving the lanes and that's ok)
Private swim lesson cancellations:
If someone calls to cancel a swim lesson, it is important that you send a message to the instructor FIRST, then to Sam after. Sams email is swimlessons@gmcf.life. On days he is not working he will not see it time to cancel and message the instructor first.

O-Team Procedure on how to talk to members about lane usage:
Suggested Dialogue......
O-Team: “Hey, What are you here for?”
Patron: “Just playing around”
O-Team: “This area is for fitness only, you need to find a different time to swim. When you’re ready, come up to the front desk and we will look at a more appropriate time.”
O-Team: “Hey, what are you here for?”
Patron: PT
O-Team: “Great, are you okay with sharing a lane?”
Patron: “Yes.”
Patron: “No”
O-Team: “All of these are shared lanes, so if someone would like to join you, they are allowed.”
O-Team: “How old are you, are you swimming alone?”
Patron: “12”
O-Team: “Anyone 12 and under is not permitted to swim without an adult.”
O-Team: “Are you able to share a lane?”
Patron: “of course”
O-Team: “Great, thank you.”
Enforcing Pool Rules:
If any member of Oteam sees a member or non-member breaking one of the rules you may approach said person and point to the sign, and remind them to follow our rules. If they become rude or hostile then get management. If management is not present, if possible get their name and slack Jenna & Cady about the incident.
