why work with a
personal trainer?
Because, without one, it’s easy to:
• End your workouts early.
• Think you’ve done enough, even though you
have it in you to do that one last rep or set.
• Skip a warm-up or cool-down.
• Say you’re challenging yourself when you know
deep down that you could have done more.
• Do exercises that can cause injury.

SunScreen ApplicAtion
Use sunscreen with at least SPF 15 and UVA
and UVB protection every time your child
goes outside. For the best protection, apply
sunscreen generously 30 minutes before
going outdoors. Don’t forget to protect
ears, noses, lips and the tops of feet.
Swim teStS
Why: Lifeguards need to know each child can
support themselves in water over their head.
Sunscreen wears off. Put it on again if you
are in the sun for more than two hours and
after you swim or sweat. When sunscreen
is applied just before entering the pool,
it rinses off – creating cloudy water. Our
lifeguards must be able to see the main
drains on the bottom of the pool. Please
apply sunscreen before you come to the
Club. When you apply sunscreen later in
the day, please wait 30 minutes before
entering the water.
When: To swim in the recreation,
competition or outdoor pool without an
adult present in the pool area Hot tubS And overHeAting
The temperature of a hot tub essentially
induces a fever in your body. Fifteen
minutes is the longest anyone should

Please take a shower immediately before
getting in any pool or hot tub and get
completely wet. This helps reduce the
amount of chlorine in the pools and is
better for your hair and skin.
lAp Swim etiquette
Swim on the right side of the lane, just
like you drive a car. You’ll reduce your
risk of running into someone because
they’re swimming along the same
straight line as you.
be l l e vue c lub
po o l ru les
Our pools are designed to accommodate
many swimmers. Circle swimming
accommodates more than one person in
a lane. Lap swimming is for members of
all ages.
