GENERAL PUBLIC SWIM INFORMATION
 No sun? No problem!
The Brownell-Talbot Theisen Pool is a beautiful, indoor,
6-lane, 25 yard facility.
SCHOOL HOLIDAYS: The pool will be closed during the
school year when Brownell-Talbot School has a day off or school holiday.
GENERAL ADMISSION:
Fitness Swim and Family Swim admissions are $3 per swimmer
regardless of age. Please pay on deck. Current B-T students and
faculty/staff are exempt from general admission for Fitness and Family
Swim. Family members of current B-T students and everyone else
using the pool during these times must pay before they swim.
SAFETY FIRST:

Water Safety Page.
WATER TEMPERATURE:
The Theisen Pool is kept at a
wonderfully warm 86 degrees year round.
CLOSING TIME:
Please exit the pool fifteen
minutes before the posted closing time. This allows for a fifteen-minute
shower/dress period in the locker rooms before the doors are locked at closing
time. If you need more than fifteen minutes to dress, please leave yourself
enough dressing time to exit the building at our posted time.
LOST & FOUND:
Check your bags before you leave after each swim. Items left in
non-rental lockers will be removed and treated as lost and found items.
Do not leave clothes, towels, toiletries, and swim equipment in the
lockers overnight. Swimmers who have lost something at the pool
should immediately report the loss to the pool office and check the lost
and found collection that is kept in the pool office. Items in
the lost and found collection are cleaned out and disposed of
regularly. All toiletries, socks, underwear, and all hair
ornaments and ties are treated as trash, not Lost & Found items.
MEMBERSHIPS:
Due to the dynamic nature of our schedule and
the increasing use of the pool for educational programs, B-T Aquatics no longer
offers memberships. We are unable to guarantee specific hours and so will
not accept membership money for a commitment to provide a minimum number of
hours.

MORE INFORMATION
LOCKER
USE: All of our lockers are day-use only. Please remove locks
and locker content each day when you leave. An exception to this is during
the high school swimming season (Mid-November through February). We do
check out lockers to our high school student athletes, so you may see locks left
on overnight during the season.
WEATHER POLICY:
Any time that Brownell-Talbot School is closed due to weather
conditions, all aquatics events and Open/Lap Swim are cancelled.
If Brownell-Talbot cancels after-school and evening activities due to
weather, all aquatics events and Family/Fitness Swim are cancelled.
If severe weather threatens, check the news outlets.

FITNESS SWIM INFORMATION:
During Fitness Swim hours the pool is open for
lap swimming and water exercise. While we are not often crowded, sometimes
swimmers do have to share lanes. There is no minimum age for participating
in Fitness Swim. There is also no "recreational swimming" during Fitness
Swim. (No pool toys, cannonballs off the diving board, etc.) Family
Swim on Saturdays and Pirate Parties are the times for that kind of fun.
SCHEDULE:
Typical hours for B-T Fitness Swims are
Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM.* Some additional
hours may be available during the day. The schedule is updated weekly and
posted on our HOME PAGE. We do not guarantee a
specific number or even a minimum number of hours that will be made available
for public swimming. We want to be able to provide some
fitness time, but B-T Aquatics is primarily a teaching facility and the schedule
will always be dictated by the needs of our educational programs and our
teaching staff.
*We
may not offer any Fitness Swim hours during the NSAA High School Swimming Season which runs from mid-November through
the end of February. The high school need vary from year to year.

 FAMILY SWIM INFORMATION: The
pool is open for recreational swimming during family swim. Lane lines will
be in the pool, but there is no space reserved specifically for lap swimming
during Family Swim. It's first come-first served for lane space.
SCHEDULE:
Typical hours for B-T Family Swims are
Saturday afternoons noon to 3:00 PM. The schedule is updated weekly and posted
on our HOME PAGE. We try to provide at least one
Family Swim each month, but B-T Aquatics is primarily a teaching facility
and the schedule will always be dictated by the needs of our educational
programs and our teaching staff.
CHILDREN AT FAMILY
SWIM:
Children under 12
years shall be
supervised
by an adult who shall not leave the child unattended at any time. This adult
must be in the water within arms reach of the non-swimmer.
Parents, do
not drop off your under-twelve children without the required supervision.
DROP-OFF / PICK-UP:
B-T
Aquatics is NOT equipped to supervise children before or after swimming.
Parents, please do not drop off children before posted start times, and please
be here to pick up children when Family Swim ends.
