Lifeguard Cleanup Days:
Cleanup days are a great way to show me that you are serious about working this summer and a fantastic way to meet your co-workers or get back in touch. Be sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty and sturdy shoes. Lastly, dress warm! It is almost always freezing on cleanup days. I look forward to seeing all the lifeguards who can make it!
Day 1: Saturday May 2nd 10am to 1pm
Day 2: Saturday May 9th 9am to 1pm

Dear Members,
The Board of Trustees would like to assure our bond holders that we are closely monitoring the current Pandemic situation and it’s impacts on the upcoming 2020 club season.
At the moment it is our intention to open the club for members’ enjoyment during Summer 2020. Any delayed opening or closure of the club for the season is predicated on the developments of the Pandemic and Federal/State government orders. In light of this, the Board of Trustees has decided to move the due date for membership dues to May 15, 2020.
We will continue to monitor the situation and adapt as things evolve. Our ultimate hope is things turn around and we have an enjoyable summer at the club.
Thank You,
Pomona Board of Trustees
