As we approach the start of the pool season, we want to remind our valued members how important your timely payment of dues is to the maintenance and improvement of our facilities. Your contributions directly support crucial repairs, upgrades, and enhancements that ensure our pool remains a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone.

By paying your dues, you help us maintain the cleanliness and functionality of our pool, ensuring that it is ready for all members to enjoy. Funds are allocated to regular maintenance tasks, such as water quality testing, equipment repairs, and landscaping around the pool area. Additionally, your support allows us to invest in improvements, such as new lounge chairs, updated poolside amenities, and enhanced safety features.

Every dollar counts when it comes to providing the best experience possible. By fulfilling your membership dues promptly, you are playing a vital role in ensuring that Poplar Springs Swim & Racquet Club continues to be a welcoming and enjoyable retreat for all members. Together, we can make this pool season the best one yet! Thank you for being a part of our community.

Here is a little golden hour at the courts this afternoon. Significant renovations have taken place at the courts this week. A commercial-sized pressure washer was generously loaned to us, and its effectiveness has been remarkable. Interestingly, the courts' original bright green color has been revealed. Following the pressure washing, we initiated the process of filling cracks. Additionally, the washing process highlighted some drainage issues, prompting us to dig trenches. It is impressive to witness the accomplishments of a motivated group of individuals. We’re a few steps closer to our pickleball courts!

If you so kindly wanted to help fund this endeavor, please check out our gofundme linked below. Otherwise we’re looking for a few supplies like landscaping rocks, cinder blocks or bricks to build a retaining wall .

At Poplar Springs Swim & Racquet Club, the safety and enjoyment of all our members is our top priority. That's why we have a comprehensive set of pool rules and bylaws that every member is expected to follow.

These rules cover important aspects like pool hours, appropriate attire, guest policies, and prohibited activities. They are in place to ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for everyone who uses our facilities.

As a member, it is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with and abide by these rules. This helps us maintain a well-regulated environment where all members can swim, relax, and socialize without incident.

Because we don’t have a team of staff or lifeguards to make sure everyone follows rules we rely on our members to set a good example and hold each other accountable.

By working together to follow the pool rules and bylaws, we can keep Poplar Springs a premier destination for aquatic recreation and community. Thank you for doing your part to uphold the safety and integrity of our club.
