Among the reports I heard though, a dog had been allowed to swim in the pool, someone broke a glass bottle on the pool deck, and residents exceeded the number of allowed guests. Common sense sadly didn't apply in at least a few of these problems though, especially glass containers in and around the pool. It's important to say something when you see that something's not right. We need to look out for the health of our residents and the safety of our swimmers.
As a reminder, I've posted the rules again below. Those indicated in red are a few of the violations that reportedly occurred over the last week or so.
