Lost & Found Year End Donation

Our final lost and found donation run for this year will be on December 17th. Please take some time on these weeks leading up to our donation day to see if any lost items belong to you. Our lost and found is located on the pool deck, directly to the right of the entrance.

Green Room / Children Area Policy

All items in the Green Room have been purchased by WEST so patrons can use at their leisure. It has been brought to our attention that items in the Green Room including toys and the back wall have been vandalized with permanent marker which cannot be cleaned off. The Green Room Area is a community space that provides parents and children with seating, desk space and toys. With that being said, the space must be respected and kept neat by all who use it/ items in it. All children MUST be supervised by parent/ guardian at all times.

If you have any gently used toys or children’s books that you would like to donate to the Green Room, WEST will be accepting donations for the month of December!

In need of a holiday gift for an inspiring swimmer in your life? WEST is offering gift certificates for lessons that can be purchased at the front office. Our group lessons run weekdays during the day and afternoon, as well as weekends. For more information and pricing, please contact Amber at [email protected]

Happy Swimming!
