We hope you are as excited for the 2013 swim season as we are. Swim team has started and soon all will be joining in the fun. Returning members know the great fun and social events offered by our club. Let’s help welcome new members so they can experience HHSTC while feeling comfortable and at home. Thank you to ALL members for joining us for a new and exciting year!
As you know, our club is now debt free. This has allowed the board of directors to become proactive in the management of our club. Most importantly, we have the resources to create a positive, clean, member driven experience for everyone. Every year we listen to member feedback and try our best to deliver results. Some of the items delivered this year include:
- Bathrooms floors renovated
- July closing extended to 9PM
- Swim at Own Risk extended to 10AM
- Additional pool tables/chairs and lounge chairs
- Additional side tables
- Additional shade umbrellas
- Shade cabanas sanitized and cleaned
- Pool fence painted
- Clubhouse/bathroom/kitchen cleaning barter
- New pool management company hired
- Pool handrail and ladders repaired
- Entire facility pressure washed
- Professional landscaping company hired
- New toddler playground
- Junior Hammerheads program started
We are also extremely pleased to announce that morning hours have been added a couple of days per week after kids go back to school in August. Other improvements are continuing as well. This past week erosion concerns were addressed under the tennis courts. Over the next two weeks the tennis area will receive significant enhancements, which will ensure all appropriate maintenance procedures are being done, as well as increasing the aesthetic appeal of our club. While immediate needs are being addressed, we have also begun looking towards, and planning for, the future. Additional details on past, current, and future upgrades will be coming soon!
As we prepare for swim season, safety can never be stressed enough. A few of us recently attended a pool seminar and we feel the need to share some startling statistics. Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death in children ages 1 – 4, and the second leading cause when expanded to 19 years old. A staggering 19% of these occur at guarded pools! Have a good time, socialize, and remember that WE as individuals are the first line of defense in ensuring the safety of everyone, especially the precious children in our community.
I feel privileged to be involved with HHSTC, surrounded by so many great members and a talented group of volunteers. Each season we strive to build upon the success of the previous year. Please do not hesitate to reach out to any of the board of directors at any time. We are highly accessible and look forward to hearing your questions, comments, or concerns.
Thank you,
Ryan Tracy
