The Foothills Area YMCA front desk, web site and Y Universal app will be informed and announce all weather cancellations or changes just as soon as possible. Keep in mind - weather conditions in one location may not be the same elsewhere in the area. If there is a question, call ahead, 864-571-9622.

The Y Universal app is an excellent tool to have for getting the latest pool and facility closure notices. It is available in both the Android Google Play and Apple App Stores.

Rain

Practice continues when it is raining.

Thunder, Lightning & Severe Weather 

If there is thunder, lightning or severe weather practice will be suspended, but not necessarily canceled. Pool closure is a facility, not a coach or team decision.

Snow & Ice

In the event of snow or ice, practice may be canceled depending on road conditions. If public schools release early because of hazardous weather, there will be no practices. If public schools are closed for the entire day, swimmers and parents should check with the front desk after 2:45 p.m. Practice will be held if road conditions have improved throughout the day. If parents are experiencing hazardous conditions (snow, ice, thunderstorm) while their children are at practice, they should come to the pool in case practice is ended early. Be on the safe side. Don’t take chances if you have doubts.
