Swim to your heart's content

Summer's here and the best way to beat the heat is by swimming in your pool - or ours! The Jr. Olympic - sized Westlake Village pool is open from 9 am - dusk every day of the week. The pool and Clubhouse area offer many amenities such as clean bathrooms, picnic tables, a covered lanai area, and deck chairs for soaking up the sun.

We have recently hired pool attendants to help us keep the pool area clean, safe, and inviting for all Westlake residents and their guests. Starting immediately, all residents will be asked for the Westlake Village Membership cards, which you should have received after paying your annual dues earlier in the year. If you did not receive one or have lost yours, please call Rosemary in the office and she will get you another.

To maintain the safety of all residents, we do have general pool rules we expect all residents to follow (they are conspicuously posted in the pool area and also in our “White Book”. Here are a few:

1) Please have your membership card on you at all times and do not get angry or insulted if you are asked to provide it. The pool is a very valuable asset to our community on which we spend money to provide SOLELY to our residents.

2) We ask that all children under 14 be accompanied by an adult. Florida leads the nation in child drownings - it just makes good sense to accompany small children, even if you know they can swim!

3) Please do not bring glass into the pool area.

4) No night swimming. We do not have the necessary illumination as dictated by Pinellas County and we could lose our pool certification if people swim in the pool at night. That is why the pool closes at dusk.

5) No foul language, overly loud or distracting music, etc.

Our pool is to be safely enjoyed by all residents. If you are down at the pool and you need assistance or have a question, please call me at 727.417.8814 - I'll be happy to help in any way I can.

Happy Swimming!
