Pool season is coming soon! The annual meeting for the Westbridge Pool will be on Thursday March 9 at 6 p.m. at the Waunakee Village Center Conference Room A. Annual fees paid on or before the meeting will be discounted by $50 — so $350 for families and $250 for couples. Please complete the application form and insurance forms, which can be found on the pool web site www.westbridgepool.com, and hand in with your payment. The pool board will also be able to take credit/debit card payments at the meeting.

Here are a few things to know:

Fee Discount To keep it fair for all, the $50 discount on annual membership will only be applied for applications received at or before the annual meeting. For families the discounted rate will be $350 and for couples $250 if paid before March 8, 2017. Application and Insurance forms are on the pool website and can be mailed to the P.O. Box, dropped off at 762 Westbridge Trail or brought with you to the annual meeting. We will also lower the family membership fee to $300 for those joining after July 6th and to $150 for those joining after August 16.

Board Members If anyone would like to nominate themselves for any of the board positions (president, vice president, treasurer or secretary) please David James know as soon as possible and ahead of the meeting so that new incumbents can be introduced at the meeting (and have a say in the arrangements for this year).

Maintenance Person Mike came to our rescue at the end of last year after Brian left, but we need someone to take on the responsibility of overseeing the mechanical room at the pool. This need not be anywhere near the full time position that Brian made it as the monitors will be expected to have a bigger part to play this year, but we do need someone to step up please. Badger Pools will provide the training and support for the position so previous experience is not essential. Membership fees will be waived for a single volunteer or discounted if the responsibility is shared by two or more members.

Monitors Most if not all of the monitors from the past two years will not be available in 2017 so we need a new team. Monitors must be at least 16, and Kraig (or the new vice president) will conduct the training and interviews.
