The Green. The Green is officially open. We ask that groups that gather there be limited to 50 or less, and that proper social distancing practices be followed.

Q - What are the cleaning procedures? A - Our pool company is partnering with a cleaning company and implementing a cleaning and disinfection procedure every 3 hours. Pool staff will spray down the entire pool deck and all furniture. With this said, we highly recommend, encourage, and request that each patron cleans furniture before and after personal use.

Q - When I come to the pool, how do I enter? A - We will have one gate open for entry. This will be the gate on the golf club side, closest to the lodge. We have lined the side walk with blue tape in order to assist with promoting social

distancing. The other two gates will be closed for entry. When it is time for residents to clear the pool area, all gates will be opened for exit. We ask for your cooperation in NOT letting people In through the Out doors.

Q - Will the pool be over crowded? A - This is a multi-part answer: • As of right now, we are limiting the amount of people to access the pool in one session to a maximum of 300 residents. • In order to give residents first opportunity, please limit visitation of the pool to only those who reside in your household. • We have worked with our pool company to strategically place all furniture to ensure social distancing. Please do not move the furniture.

Entrance will be allowed on a first come first serve basis. • Please know that we have engaged additional staff to monitor the entrances and patron levels.

Q – How will I know if the pool area has reached full capacity during a given session? A – We will update the Windermere Facebook

Page to communicate if the pool has reached its capacity. If you haven’t already, please Like our page so you will see these updates. Our intention is that no one stands in a line and is turned away.

Q – Is the water slide going to be available? A – At this time the slide and splash pad will be closed. We simply are not able to effectively sanitize and disinfect each of these areas after each patron comes into contact with the area. Plus, the splash pad area is being used for additional socially distanced seating.

Q—Can we reserve the pool for parties? A – Not at this time.

Again, we are sending this Q&A as a set of preliminary guidelines. We are opening with restrictions to evaluate the optimal procedures to ensure that Windermere Residents are able to utilize a wonderful amenity. Please be patient, and know that the Board and Management may and likely will change these guidelines and restrictions as the summer progresses.

Lastly, if you have not DocuSign’d the Pool Rules, and wish to receive your 2020 amenity stickers, please contact the Property Management office.
