And, the final days of summer are here! Although some of our activities are coming to an end, this is the best time of the summer to take advantage of our facilities.
This week is our final week of dive, tennis, and swim lessons. We hope you have seen the difference in your athlete(s) over the past 8 weeks- we sure have!
During this final week of lessons, we will also have our last week of arts and crafts and the pop-library visit. Arts and Crafts run Monday-Thursday from 10am-1pm and the library will be at the club on Tuesday, 11am.

Entering and Exiting the Club – This cannot be stressed enough. The driveway closest to the clubhouse is the entrance. The driveway closest to the dumpster is the exit. Please inform your guests of this before their arrival.
Check-In Location – upon entering the club your family needs to check in with the greeter. If you have guests there is a $10 per guest fee. You can purchase the pass ahead of time online https://russellmill.com/product/guest-pass-online/. Please be prepared to provide the greeter with the names of the members checking in daily.
Glass – Glass is not allowed on the pool deck. We have plastic cups in the office if you forget yours. Broken glass that gets in the pool is a serious situation that at minimum results in closure of the pool for multiple hours to ensure proper removal.
