Safety Rules

  • Swimming without a lifeguard is at your own risk.
  • Do not disturb the lifeguards while they are on duty.
  • Obey the lifeguards. Problems should be brought to the attention of the head lifeguard and/or pool manager.
  • No running allowed in the pool area. No rowdy or unruly behavior.
  • Please respect IPPA property and equipment, and property of members and guests.
  • Glass containers are not allowed anywhere on pool property.
  • Food must be kept in the picnic area, per Fulton County Health Department regulations.
  • The pool staff is authorized to restrict or ban the use of flotation devices and toys.
  • In general, inflatable arm bands and small tubes for individual use can be used in the general swim area and children's area. No such devices are allowed in the designated lap lanes. For safety reasons, large rafts, oversized tubes and high powered water guns are not permitted. On crowded days, the lifeguards may have to restrict all such devices.
  • Babies and young children who are not toilet trained MUST wear water tight protective plastic pants at all times. NO DIAPERS ALLOWED IN THE POOLS OR POOL AREA. This is required by health codes. Use of plastic swim pants helps to prevent the spread of potentially dangerous disease. Furthermore, it prevents costly damage to the pool -- the crystals in disposable diapers can clog the pool pump, resulting in thousands of dollars in damages. This rule will be strictly enforced. If you are bringing a guest with a baby or toddler, please advise them of this rule.
  • No pets in the pool or pool area.
  • No bicycles, tricycles or wheeled toys in the pool area. If you ride your bicycle to the pool, keep it in the bike rack. Strollers should be kept in the upper deck area and should not be used as toys by children.
  • Bathing suits must be worn. No cut-off jeans in the pool.
  • One lane will be reserved for lap swim at all times.
  • All lap swimming is circular swimming.

Access Rules/Guest Policy

  • Access is allowed during pool hours only. Members should sign in their guests at the Pool House.
  • Members are required to bring membership cards and ID, which may be periodically checked. Please do not be offended if you are asked to show your card and/or ID. Access to the pool facility must be controlled in order to stay in compliance with health, safety and insurance requirements.
  • Guest Policy: Each member household shall be allowed to bring up to 10 guests during the season. The pool manager will be responsible for tracking the number of guests brought by each member. Any visitors over the 10 allowed will be admitted at a cost of $5 each.

Please remember that hosing a party is privilege of membership and that the rules are designed to ensure the safety, enjoyment, and comfort of everyone at the pool.
  • Babysitter Passes: Members who hire a babysitter to care for their children can register the babysitter IN WRITING with the IPPA board and staff for access to the pool. The babysitter must sign in at the entrance with the members' number and is only allowed access when accompanying the members' child(ren). Babysitters may be asked to show identification. Only babysitters registered in writing will be permitted access.
