PACA POOL INFORMATION for Monitors 2013-14
 
Dear Lifeguard,
 
The PACA pool is open from December to late March or early April each year. On school days, the pool hours are from 3:30 to 5:00. On Saturdays, the pool remains open from 11:00 to 5:00. The pool will only be opened if adult lifeguard are available for duty. The pool coordinators wish to recruit parents, teachers, and others responsible adults to work one shift per week. For example, a parent may volunteer to work on Mondays from 3:30 to 5:00. Another parent may wish to work every Saturday during one of the three shifts for that day, 11:00 to 1:00, 1:00 to 3:00, or 3:00 to 5:00. This year we have no substitute’s list. PACA teachers & staff may use pool 5:15pm – 8:00pm. – Never alone!
