Pool Rules and Regulations 

These are the rules and regulations of the Mariner's Point community pool.

The pool is for the exclusive use of community members of the Association and their guests.

1. Responsibility: Everyone using the pool and the pool area does so at their own risk. The Mariner's Point Community Association, its officers and agents assume no responsibility for any accident or injury in connection with such use.

2. Good Standing: All Mariner's Point Community Association members who use the pool facilities must be members in good standing of the Association. Dues must be paid up-to-date before passes will be issued and members must remain in good standing.

3. Passes: Anyone admitted to the pool area must have a valid Resident or Guest Pass. It is the responsibility of the Lifeguard to admit only persons with proper pool passes to the pool area. Do not ask the lifeguard to make exceptions for anyone. When entering the pool area, please show your pass to the lifeguard or other authority on duty, and sign the log. The resident to whom the pass has been issued must accompany all guests. Temporary passes may be requested by calling Community Association Management at 1-888-730-5110 (Toll-Free) during regular business hours. Temporary passes should be requested not less than two business days prior to the day needed. If you give your pass to any other person, your pass will be revoked for the season. Do not ask the guard to make any exceptions to the Pass Rules; they will be terminated for doing so.

4. Schedule: Weather permitting, the pool will be open everyday from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. The weekday schedule follows the county school schedule; if the school schedule changes, the pool schedule will change.

  • Memorial Day Weekend: Pool will be open 11:00 am to 8:00 pm.
  • From the Tuesday after Memorial Day until the end of the school year in mid-June, the pool will be open from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm on school days and 11:00 am to 8:00 pm on weekends.
  • Beginning the first day of the Anne Arundel County public school summer vacation, the pool will be open from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm on both weekdays and weekends.
  • On Labor Day weekend and the following weekend, the pool will be open from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm.

5. Pool Closing: State Law prohibits swimming unless a licensed lifeguard is on duty. At the discretion of the Pool Manager or Lifeguard, the pool may be closed at any time due to mechanical breakdowns or other operational difficulties. The pool will be closed during electrical storms and inclement weather.

6. Attire: Only proper swim attire may be worn in the water. Cut-offs are not permitted swim attire. Hard soled shoes are not permitted within the pool area.

7. Children: Children who are in diapers must wear snug-fitting rubber pants over their diaper and a bathing suit on top.

All children under the age of twelve (12) must demonstrate to the lifeguard's satisfaction their ability to swim before being allowed in the water without an adult.

8. Conduct & Consideration: Be considerate of small children who would like to play or practice their first swim strokes in the shallow leg. Volleyball enthusiasts take note! No wrestling, ball playing, horseplay, unnecessary roughness or disturbances that endanger the safety of others will be permitted in the pool or pool area. Music may be played at a level that will not disturb others.

9. Showering: If playing volleyball in the sand box area, you should wash the sand from feet before entering the pool area.

10. Animals: State Law prohibits animals in the pool area.

11. Intoxication: Anyone intoxicated or under the influence of drugs will not be permitted in the pool area. The lifeguard may ask unauthorized persons or a person obviously under the influence to leave. Should the need arise, the Lifeguard may call the Annapolis City Police for assistance.

20. Trespassing: Anyone trespassing in the pool area is subject to immediate arrest.

21.

Within 24 hours of taking such action, they must notify, in writing, the Chairperson of the Pool and Clubhouse Committee and provide a brief outline of the people involved and the rules that were violated. Continued violations of the Rules & Regulations or of the instructions of the pool authorities may lead to expulsion from the pool and the pool area for the remainder of the season.
