POOL GUIDE
ATTENTION JCC OF SYRACUSE MEMBERS:
Please remember to use your membership card to enter the building on Saturdays and access the pools. Don’t have

Welcome JCC Members
The 2020 outdoor
swimming season
is finally here!
We can’t wait to
welcome you back
to our outdoor
heated pools. In
addition to the late start this year due to
the coronavirus pandemic, you’ll notice a
variety of changes designed to help ensure
your health and safety. Yes, things will be
quite different this year. However, we are
confident that you will still have plenty of
opportunities to enjoy the water and sun.
As with the rest of the JCC, our top
priority is to open the pool in the safest
way possible. The pool’s capacity will be
reduced to accommodate current health
regulations. We’ve also adjusted pool hours
slightly to accommodate more frequent
cleaning. Specifically, please note this
year’s following new health and safety
protocols.
• Please make reservations in
advance to use the pool to prevent
overcrowding. Visit bit.ly/resjccpool
to make a reservation.
• All swimmers will undergo a health
check before being permitted in the
pool area. Anyone with a fever of
100.4° F or higher or symptoms of
illness will not be permitted to stay.

AQUA FITNESS
IN THE JCC’S OUTDOOR HEATED POOL
8:15–9:00 am
8:15–9:00 am
• Social distancing with lounge chairs/
tables to keep families separate.
• Time in between reservations
to allow for cleaning of chairs/
equipment.
• Staff/lifeguards will wear masks.
• Specific times for semi-private and
private swim lessons so there will
be no mixing with recreational
swimming.
Make the most of your membership by
using the pool to its fullest this summer.
Come swim after work, on weekends with
family and friends or after early morning
workouts. Incorporating the pool into your
personal fitness training will add a new
dimension to your exercise routine.
Like last year, we’re offering semiprivate
and private learn-to-swim lessons.
However, all group swimming lessons
have been canceled due to the coronavirus
pandemic. See page 3 for details.
Because the JCC pool is a membersonly
benefit, please remember to bring
your membership card to the pool and
check-in at the lifeguard desk upon
entering the pool area. If you have any
questions or comments regarding the pool,
please contact us at 315-445-2360. Thank
you for being a JCC of Syracuse member.
We hope to see you pool side!
